Community Service Letter and Pin
The PACE Community Service Letter and Pins are available as awards to all Pulaski Community School District staff and Pulaski High School students. (Limit one letter and one pin per person please.) These awards will be made, annually, at the PHS Honor’s Reception in May. The applications are due to the PACE Office by March 31st of each year. Please make a copy of all of your materials to keep for yourself. Once you have accumulated the required volunteer service hours you may turn in the completed forms, with required signatures to the PACE Office. All records will be kept and the PACE office can be used as a reference for students when applying for colleges and/or jobs. If you have any questions regarding the Community Service Letter & Pin Project please call the PACE Office at 822-6050 or 822-6051.
