Hello Service Learning Blog

Welcome to the 2019-20 SES Middle School Service  LEARNING Blog!!!

What is "service learning anyway??? How is it different from just "service?"

"True service learning for social justice is a shared partnership!" - Amy Kleiner

What service learning is NOT

-one-sided

-charity

-volunteering without connecting

What service learning IS

-two-sided

-mutually beneficial

-tied to outcomes

How could this article from "Oregon Humanities" about the SES 3rd grade musical from a few years back connect to our approach to service in the middle school this school year???  SES - More to the Story...

Upcoming Service LEARNING Opportunities:

Wednesday, September 18th - SES Middle School Musical Info!!!! - Auditorium after school
