Florida Bright Futures Scholarship

Once the student is an active ninth grader and a project has the written approval of the high school community service designee, there is no time limit for completing hours other than that the hours must be completed prior to the student's graduation date.
​
Students should not begin community service work until their project ideas have been submitted to and approved by their school's Community Service designee and all paper work has been signed and dated by the appropriate people. Students should contact their high school Community Service Designee with questions.
