Service Learning
Service-learning is an educational approach that combines learning objectives with community service in order to provide a pragmatic, progressive learning experience while meeting societal needs.
Oak Hall students, faculty and staff are engaged in service opportunities in our Gainesville community and often far beyond.
These projects are a way for us to give back, help, and make a difference. Service is a core pillar of Oak Hall's values.
Oak Hall Upper School students are required to complete forty (40) service hours as a graduation requirement.
FOR MORE INFORMATION PLEASE CONTACT KRISTIN WILSON, SERVICE LEARNING COORDINATOR
Service learning is a valuable way to learn about what it means to give back to your community, to be involved in helping others rebuild their lives, to show care to people you wouldn't ordinarily cross paths with. In the process of serving a meal, planting a tree or painting a house, we learn about different people in the world, who may be limited by or struggling with things that we don't deal with on a day to day basis.
