Caring for our Common Home
The freshman service requirement is 5 hours.
All freshmen are automatically registered for our Composting program and are an integral part of our Composting team that aims to keep our environment clean and thriving. All freshmen must complete their service requirements by June 2026.
Their service consists of:
Part I: Signing-up for a Wednesday morning shift
Freshmen students will be able to register for a Tuesday afterschool compost bucket collection shift via their Community Service 9 Canvas page. Please note that spots are limited for each session and are available on a first serve basis. Sign-ups will be posted each month, and all Freshmen need to do this 5 times, for 5 Wednesdays to gain 5 hours.
Part II: Compost Bucket Collection
On Tuesdays, freshman volunteers must check in with Ms. Banuelos in the Center for Service and Justice. Then, they will go around campus collecting Green Compost buckets and taking them to the compost container in Hernandez Field.
Setting Up an MobileServe Account
All programs and projects related to your Service and Justice experience at Loyola High School must be recorded and submitted on MobileServe. Instructions regarding account registration will be posted in the Community Service 9 Canvas page. This platform will be used throughout the four years at Loyola.
