Have you met your Volunteering requirement yet for Semester 2?

Sign up on SchoolsBuddy to help at the Swim Meet on Saturday the 11th or Sunday the 12th.

Depending on your responsibility, you could achieve one of the following outcomes. ONE. ONE OUTCOME.

  • Ethics – You were honest in timekeeping. You started and stopped the stopwatch at the right time. The time on the stopwatch was almost always the same as the time on the board.
  • Collaboration – You had to work with another person. You and your partner took turns in marshalling the swimmers. You talked and decided who was going to walk the swimmers to the pool. You worked with the person calling the names or maybe you went to find the missing swimmers.
  • Commitment and Perseverance – You stayed for the whole 2.5 hours. It was a long day. Maybe it was hot and humid. You worked the whole time. Maybe you had to stand the whole time. How many steps did you walk? You finished the shift even though you were tired.
