Community Service

Does MECA have a community service requirement?

While neither Mt. SAC Early College Academy nor WCUSD have community service hour requirements for graduation, students are still encouraged to participate in community service opportunities and other extracurricular activities. Students who are interested in community service should refer to the Volunteer/Community Service document, provided below, for more information on documenting their extracurricular activities and hours.
