EBA Community Service Requirement
Kempsville and our surrounding community have been a tremendous support in assisting to establish the Entrepreneurship & Business Academy at Kempsville High School. EBA students directly benefit from the kindness and generosity of our partners. We want to ensure that we are creating students who are not only critical and creative thinkers and problem solvers but who are also civic-minded and understand the importance of service and giving back. Social entrepreneurship plays a large role in today’s world and many of our students are interested in creating and assisting businesses who give back and have a service-based mindset. This academy requirement ensures that all of our students spend time giving back to our local community who gives so much to them during their time in this program.
EBA Hour Requirement:
Students who enroll in the Entrepreneurship & Business Academy as freshmen will need to complete 100 hours of community service related activities/events (list of ideas included below) during their time of enrollment at Kempsville High School. The recommendation is that students complete 25 hours of community service a year to reach the goal of 100 hours for students who enroll as freshmen. Students are encouraged to complete more than 100 hours but only 100 hours are required by the end of the junior year. Students who complete the most community service hours in a year will be honored/awarded for their efforts through the Presidential Service Award recognition purchased through the Friends of the EBA. The senior who earns the most hours during their time as an EBA student is also honored at the EBA Senior Ceremony.
