Social Justice Leaders are not only leaders of themselves within their own classes, but also push themselves to practice leadership skills in work and community service settings. We encourage HSC students to choose extracurricular activities and experiences that drive their passion for social change and to make a commitment to that area of interest. Explore your interests, discover your passion, and take action by committing to something!
For more information, speak with Dianna Carter or Jessica Domotor to discuss your options.
Work Experience-
Many students work for many different reasons. Whatever the reason, be aware that you're building work and career skills in real-time. Take note of your tasks and pay attention to the skills you are asked to perform while at work.

The forms are below, as well as a link to the website you'll need to track your New Haven Promise volunteer hours (40 total). Check out the form description below to find the one right for you!
- School-Based Services are any experiences that are directly connected to HSC, including helping with SLC's, organizing a dance or an event at the school.
- Community-Based Services are those experiences you have that aren't directly tied to HSC, including Youth Court, Big Brother Big Sister, and tutoring at a K-8 school.
