-Community service gives students lifelong lessons in empathy, hard work and cultural awareness. This experience teaches students that they can have a positive effect on their community and, eventually, the world by identifying problems and then solving them. With these aims in mind, Williams Montessori requires all students to perform community service each year. By making this commitment to the community a regular part of their lives, it is our hope that students will continue this endeavor into adulthood.
+Middle school students are required to complete 36 service hours per year, with 9 hours being completed each quarter so that the experience is consistent.
+High school students must complete 50 service hours per year (12.5 hours per quarter). Graduating students will have 272 total service hours.
