Community Service
Summer is a great time for students to do community service. New opportunities are posted in the Community Service course located on all students' Canvas dashboard. Students can also submit volunteer hours in Canvas that are not posted through GHS and they will be entered into Skyward.
Mrs. Gwen Feldbruegge (Welcome Desk Assistant) coordinates the program and can be reached at ghs-service@grafton.k12.wi.us or 262-376-5508. If you belong to or know of an area organization that is in need of volunteers, please contact Mrs. Feldbruegge. If you have any other questions, please contact your school counselor.
