Most people know that as a Deerfield student, one must obtain 55 volunteer hours during highschool before graduating as a senior. There are many ways and places students can volunteer to get these hours, but the object is making this a time a time to look forward to, instead of dreading it. From working at a church bible school, helping at the soup kitchen, or giving one's time at the anual Relay for Life at Darton College.
Volunteering can be fun if a person picks the right location. If a student likes animals - help out at the animal shelter, or if they like young kids - help at a day care. Picking places that seem fun, will make it more enjoyable to do instead of something that has to be done just to graduate. Also, get friends to come and make it a group activity!
