WOLVERINE GUARD 2021-2022
The 2021-22 Wolverine Guard Program is going strong!  We already have received applications and hours for some students.  For those who aren’t familiar with it, WG is a Bellevue High PTSA sponsored award that recognizes students who perform 100+ hours of community service in the 12-month period from May 1st to April 30th of each school year.  Students who complete the WG requirements earn a certificate of recognition and who get WG two years during high school, get a special tassel at graduation. 

For current guidelines, rules and required forms for WG 2021-22, please go to the BHS PTSA website, https://www.bellevuehighptsa.com/wp/ and look under BHS PTSA Programs.   

As a reminder: The PTSA WG program is separate from the Bellevue School District's volunteer hours requirement for graduation.  However, hours that are earned to meet graduation requirements may also be used to meet WG requirements. You will need to download WG forms off of our website to both record your hours (and get supervisor’s signatures!) and the WG Application form.  Thank you to those students who are supporting people through giving your time and energy. You do make a difference! 

Please contact Patti Liffick or Nancy Huenefeld Gese (Your WG Co-Chairs) at wolverineguard@bellevuehighptsa.com with any questions that you have.
