Do you think community service should be a requirement for high school graduation?
See article.
While I am a big believer in actively promoting the importance of serving your community to students, making it a requirement just seems like one more thing that the kids have to do to graduate. Some kids will no doubt learn a lot and have fun with this, but I can see it as a problem for other kids as well.
Incidently, the teacher, Mr. King that is quoted in the article, was freshman year social studies teacher.

Nope. Not a chance. Way to much stuff to do already. And if it happens outside of normal school hours and the kids have to find their own way there and such it has too much potential to be a hardship.
i think that anytype of community helping is AWESOME, but i have to agree, DONT THE KIDS HAVE ENOUGH to think about to graduate now having to SCROUNGE Up something in this small town to help........
SORRY. NOT
