"Where Can I Turn In My Hours?"

You can log your hours using our BRHS Service App here.

Here are the instructions for logging into the BRHS Service App:

"Is There Special Recognition for Completing a Certain Amount of Service Hours?"

Recognition at Graduation for Service Hours:

The Wolf’s Call to Serve = pin given to students based on accomplished service hours only*
- Current Juniors - 37.5 (by April 15, 2026)
- Current Freshmen - 100 (by April 15, 2028)
- Current Sophomores - 62.5 hours (by April 15, 2027)

*accomplished service hours refers to the service hours that are recorded in the BRHS Service App

"What about the President's Volunteer Service Award?"

There is a nationwide suspension of this program that was effective 5/27/25.

"I Have a Great Deal (or some) Service Hours Completed, What Do I Do?"

If you have already compiled service hours from another school or another platform (x2Vol), you have a couple of options. You can:
- upload those service hours onto our new platform one-by-one (BRHS Service App) so that they count towards your hours needed for Graduation Recognition
  OR
- Download the PDF Service Transcript from x2Vol and upload them to the BRHS Service App as an attachment. Under description, you can put "previous hours attached" and for adult in charge you can put Ms. Minick

Note that volunteer hours are not a requirement for graduation in CMS, however, students set themselves apart on job applications, resumes, and college applications by showing that they are invested in their communities and go the extra mile for others. This is KEY!
