Logging volunteer hours

Submitting hours AND tracking them are done entirely in PowerSchool. Hours you enter will immediately be reflected in your student’s dashboard where they can be verified by the advancement staff.

How to enter and view your hours:

On your laptop or desktop computer, find the Family Volunteer Hours icon Family volunteer hours near the bottom of the left-side navigation in the PowerSchool parent portal for your youngest Bullpup. Click on that icon to go to the dashboard. There you will be able to see the hours you’ve served and view your family’s total for the school year.

The top portion of the page is where you submit hours from an event/activity/gift card donation etc. Fill out who served, the date, the number of hours (remember to double if they were cleanup hours), and the description. You may enter multiple dates and volunteer duties at once. Click the “submit” button to save the entries.

The bottom portion of the screen reflects your family’s total hours served for the school year.

That’s it!
