🎓 Beyond the Classroom
🎓 Beyond the Classroom
The Special Events Committee gives scholars hands-on experience planning and executing real events while developing leadership, communication, organization, and teamwork skills. Through participation, scholars gain valuable experience in project planning, customer service, event operations, and collaboration—skills that strengthen college, scholarship, internship, employment, military, and apprenticeship applications. Eligible high school PTSA volunteer activities may also earn community service hours that can be applied toward school graduation requirements.
