High School Summer Service 2014

Wellington is once again offering teenagers meaningful, resume-boosting volunteer experience this summer through Wellington’s High School Summer Service Program. This exciting learning opportunity pairs incoming high school juniors and seniors with various Wellington departments, allowing students to learn more about how their local government works and get a taste of a real-world professional setting while racking up community service hours.

To participate, students must be entering their junior or senior year in high school, must have at least a 3.0 GPA, and provide two letters of recommendation. Students should also be able to commit to volunteering eight hours per week, in either two four-hour blocks or one eight-hour block, from June 16th through August 7th.

Applications can be found at all Village locations and on our website. Completed applications will be accepted Monday, April 7th through Thursday, May 16th, but space is limited, so be sure to submit your application early.
