Volunteer Hours - deadline May 3, 2021
Peachtree Ridge encourages students to volunteer their time to help and assist others. People choose to volunteer for a variety of reasons. For some it offers the chance to give something back to the community or make a difference to the people around them. For others it provides an opportunity to develop new skills or build on existing experience and knowledge.
If you keep track of your volunteer time and input into the system, you may be recognized by the school by providing you a cord at graduation. To input volunteer hours, you must be signed into your school email account and click on this link to access the input form. Volunteer Hours
To earn a volunteer cord for graduation, you must have accumulated 180 total hours during your high school career. These hours must be submitted into the system. The hours must be actual hours volunteering outside of your school day.
2021 Graduates! All volunteer hours must be entered by May 3. All hours entered as of this date will be used to determine if you earned a cord.

- Nominations will be open Monday, April 19 and will close Friday, April 30.

- Nominations MUST be in good academic and disciplinary standing.
- To be crowned Prom King and Queen, the court member MUST be present at Prom. There is no digital victory option like Homecoming.
