Pioneer is now collecting applications for the Presidential Service Awards. In order to qualify, you must have completed a minimum of 100 community service hours in one calendar year (you can pick the start/stop date). To learn more, please visit our Presidential Award page.
The deadline for applying will be Friday, September 19. Awards will be handed out at the end of the Spring Semester.
We have lots of resources throughout this website. Be sure to take a look. One of the most important pages is our Volunteer Opportunity page. Not only does it have information about how to track hours or what non-profits are valid for San Jose Unified School District but you will also find some of our most popular agencies that students volunteer with and information on how to create your own service project.
ABOUT US
Service Learning has been a part of Pioneer High School since 1995 when the first Sophomore Project was completed. Michael Stark and Bob Vasconcellos started Service Learning through innovative projects like BioSITE, Senior Exhibition, YMCA Leadership Development, and S-Period Service Hour.
Mike Burrell and Rob Zaccheo took over the program in 2002. In 2005, the first Service Learning Leadership class began. Every year, students in the class learn valuable organizational skills along with project management tasks as they create, plan, and evaluate various service projects on campus. The Fall Outreach Fair, blood drives, Red Ribbon Week, Diversity Week, and Earth Day are just a few examples of these projects.
