Sage Serves
Show Gratitude by Giving Back with Sage Serves!

As we enter the Thanksgiving season, what better way to express gratitude than by serving others? Sage Oak students have already logged 659 service hours toward our goal of 1,000 hours this year. What a fantastic start! Let’s keep the momentum going this November by finding meaningful ways to give back.

Sage Serves celebrates the positive impact students make in their communities. Hours completed between May 1st, 2026 – April 30th, 2027, can be logged to earn special service recognition.

Ready to join in this season of giving?
