text: Having a cleaner, nicer and friendlier community is what everybody wants. Giving every one a sense of responsibility. Making people feel proud of what they have done or help achieve. Helping little kids open there snack to helping an elderly woman down the street. There are many ways to help your community and people out there might not even know what they are capable of. So I think that your idea of requiring students to perform community service is wonderful idea. Students our there could make a change either in their life or in someone else life.
