If your child is considering an opportunity and you are unsure if it qualifies please contact Mrs. Hitchcock and she will happily work it out with you. In recent years Mrs. Hitchcock has been working with previous SEC Community Service Heads to create a Community Service Resource Library in Students Services, which includes information about over 180 different organizations in the city that take volunteers. A digital version of the Library is available on the BVG Website under Upper School Community Involvement. This year our goal is to expand the library even more and make it a useful tool not only for students, but anyone who needs help figuring out where they want to get their hours. Please be aware that offsite Community Involvement opportunities are not supervised by Bayview Glen faculty and students are required to find their own transportation to and from events. Please hand in your hours at Student Services throughout the year as they are being completed. Chantalle Matousek SEC Head of Community Service
