Service Learning

Service is a natural result of our concern for one another. This is a wide variety of service learning activities found throughout each school division. All students are supported in finding a place for service in their lives and student-suggested activities are welcome.

Service Learning:

    • Students learn how to identify and meet community needs.
    • Students learn to intentionally reflect on the underlying structure that create societal problems, and how those structures can be changed.
    • Students develop or work with programs that address the identified needs and understand the context of the needs.
    • Students recognize that those receiving service should be involved in the development and review of the service.
    • Students act -- they do service.
    • Students reflect on both the outcome of the service and the internal experience. Students share these reflections in some way with the broader community.

Service Coordinators:
