As an International Baccalaureate school, Pacific Beach Middle requires students to complete community service hours each year.

Sixth-grade students document 10 hours, seventh-grade grade will need 15 hours, and eighth-grade students are required to complete a minimum of 20 hours that become their community service project. Eighth-grade students can complete an individual project or work in groups of two or three to meet their community service project requirements.
