Some people believe that unpaid community service should be a compulsory part of high school programmers (for example working for a charity, improving the neighbourhood or teaching sports to younger children). To what extent do you agree or disagree?

There are people who think that unpaid

community

service should be obliged for high

school

students. I totally agree with

this

, because helping as a volunteer can learn, a student useful skill and it can

also

bring great effort to a

community

.

Firstly

, working as a volunteer can learn students skills they will not learn at

school

. Useful skills,

such

as caring for the elderly, cleaning

community

buildings or serving the people in need are not usually

part

of a high

school

curriculum.

Although

these skills do not seem immediately necessary to get high scores, they will attribute to the future of students.

For instance

, they might once be

part

of a small

community

and knowing already how to serve a

community

will give them a

headstart

Suggestion

head start

.

Furthermore

, students taking

part

in ordinary daily

community

life can bring a great effort into it.

Instead

of just hanging around the campus, partying and chilling out with other students, a sort of "

community

duty" can help them come out of their comfort zone and serve the place they live in.

For example

, lots of

community

service in the Netherlands always are in great need of volunteers. Sometimes they even need to cancel events or services because of the shortage of people. In conclusion, making unpaid

community

service a compulsory

part

of high

school

can help both the students as the

community

. I strongly believe that

this

may serve students, because they gain new skills that they will not learn at

school

and it may serve the

community

by bringing lots of workforces to help them with their work.
