Some people believe that unpaid community service should be a compulsory part of high school programmers (for example working for a charity, improving the neighborhood, or teaching sports to younger children). To what extent do you agree or disagree?
It is important for young
people
to learn to care for other people
, respect them and co-operate with others. This
is why some people
think that high school
students
must be required to do some free community
service
in order to practice and learn these moral values. I personally agree with this
idea because I think this
kind of work
can be useful for them in many ways.
First
of all, by doing free community
service
, students
learn that the value of the work
they are doing is much more than the money, therefore
, they will understand and appreciate the help of others better. This
also
makes them realize that money is not everything and that humanity is more important. For example
, by doing voluntary work
in charities, they can understand how some people
donate their money but the ones who need it more than they do. Moreover
, community
service
work
makes students
feel better about themselves since they are being useful to society by helping it improve in many ways.
Furthermore
, if this
kind of work
becomes compulsory as a part of the school
program, it is granted that all the students
will have the chance of participating in at least one or two community
service
activities. As a consequence, they can gain a lot of great skills and habits. For example
, by teaching sports to younger children, they will learn to become more tolerant of kids and by improving the neighbourhood, they can develop useful skills. Lastly
, adding this
mandatory service
to High School
programs gives the students
a chance to show the words in front of others and become more responsible for their actions.
In conclusion, unpaid community
service
as a part of high school
activities has various benefits for both students
and society, therefore
, oh people
who say it should be compulsory for high school
students
