Green Bay Area Public School District Youth Service-Learning Policies The service is performed without a material or monetary reward. The activity cannot earn service-learning hours if it involves participation in worship service. The activity cannot advance nor can it inhibit religion. Students cannot use court-referred hours to fulfill the requirement. Credit can be granted for fund-raising activities for worthy community causes, but fund-raising for Green Bay high school clubs or organizations does not count toward the hours earned.  Entertainment or performance activities that are an extension of a class or a co-curricular requirement cannot be considered for service hours.
