Must-Read Guidance Documents

Make sure you have read the new editions of the JHS Student Guide and JHS Community Service Experiences Catalog!

To make sure you understand changes affecting the Spring 2025 semester, read the JHS Student Guide: Fall 2024 - Spring 2025, Edition 3 (01-17-25) and JHS Community Service Experiences Catalog: Fall 2024 - Spring 2025, Edition 4 (01-21-25). For your convenience, differences between Edition 2 and Edition 3 of the JHS Student Guide are highlighted in yellow like this.

Next Reporting Due Date

FEBRUARY 28: Report all hours performed 2/1/25 - 2/28/25. Have at least 8 hours completed and reported.

The timeline for submitting hours has changed to a monthly format, effective immediately. Submit the online Spring 2025 JHS Community Service Report Form by the end of the same month in which the service occurs. If the end of that month has already passed, submit any unreported community service immediately (submit hours performed before February 1 immediately). Do not wait until the April 21 deadline is looming to report your hours.

Combine all service dates occurring in the same month, for the same organization/site/event/experience, on one JHS Community Service Notes* page and one online Spring 2025 JHS Community Service Report Form. Submitting more report forms than necessary wastes your time and increases the number of reports that SIUE staff review, slowing down the final approval process for everyone.

*The JHS Community Service Notes page is further explained in the “Road Map - STEP 1: Finding and Scheduling Qualified Community Service Experiences” section of the JHS Student Guide: Fall 2024 - Spring 2025, Edition 3 (01-17-25).
