Just submit hours as you complete them! We do have recommended timelines for completing hours, but those are just guidelines! If you are on probation, you do have to meet regular hour goals.

I'm a member of NJHS/NHS, StuCo, or another club, can I count those hours for Key Club?

Of course! We love when our members are active in our school's community. You can also count hours completed with Key Club towards your NJHS/NHS totals.

Question 6

What is probation? How do I know if I'm on probation?

Accepted Answer

You are likely on probation if Epic paid your dues (meaning you were a member) in the previous year, but you did not serve 50 hours. You will receive an email if you are placed under probation and choose to be an official member. Honorary members cannot be placed on probation.
