WAAS students are required to complete 10 hours of Community Service per year
The Community Focus program at WAAS is intended to introduce students to the importance of serving others, and provide perspective regarding the hardships that others in the community face each and every day. In addition to helping WAAS students recognize and appreciate the advantages they are provided on a daily basis, our students will experience the joy of helping others who are less fortunate. Developing a habit of community service will give WAAS students a head start in collegiate preparation, as service is a highly regarded element looked for in college applications, and many universities require community service as a prerequisite to admission. Outstanding service may also be considered as a benefit to acceptance in local high schools signature programs, North Carolina School of Science and Math, and other secondary school options across our state.
