text: What is community service to you? Is it something you absolutely have to do because someone told you that you have to, or is it a good service that you do out of the kindness of your heart? I don't know about you but i think that real true community service comes from the heart. This is why i do not think that a principal should tell you that you have to do community service for a grade but maybe he/she could nudge you in the right direction.
