text: A suggestion for your idea might be not to make community service required, but a volunteer service. The student council may be able to make a sign up sheet with different acts of community service for each day of the week excluding the weekends. After these activities are developed by the student council, a sign up sheet should be available to kids in the main office; if you sign up, you aren't expected to go every week. You should sign up each week for a day you are available. For example. If week one's list was on the wall, you wanted to participate and you knew you were busy every day of the week but Tuesday, you would sign up for Tuesday's community service act. You may want to go again week two, but only be available on Thursday instead. This means you aren't expected to go to Tuesday's community service again unless you signed up. Kids may sign up as much or as little as they like. I'm sure that there will be a great turnout from volunteering kids. If you do not like my idea, I completely understand. I just don't like the idea of requiring all students to participate in community service.
