Service Learning

Currently under construction I have a service learning project for my sixth grade students. They will have to complete a service project of their choice and a slew of reflective assignments that tie service to citizenship. It is my hope that I can instill in them an inkling of the passion I have for service. In my mind, to teach is to serve your students, your community, and your collective future, and I hope that I will be in the service of others my entire life. To that end, I leave you with this quote and reminder by Shirley Chisholm, "Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth."
