https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv Many junior high and high schools around the country now require students to spend a certain number of hours each term doing volunteer work or community service. Some people believe this is an excellent idea that promotes good citizenship and cultivates compassion. Others feel that forced volunteerism is not volunteerism at all. How do you feel about this issue? Use specific reasons and examples to support your position. en-us 2020-11-18 16:43:04 UTC 2020-11-30 19:03:47 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-uploads.storage.googleapis.com/304852758/828aca92ca2a49bc54d1239557c2aaf9/AniBanchs.png https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv/wish/946273056 Students should be required to do volunteer work and community service work, though there should be a set of guidelines where if the student cannot for any specific reason that they should not be required.

I feel that student should be exposed or experience how it feels to do some thing for the community. But some students do have circumstances that could prevent them from doing volunteer work, like have very limited time outside of school, trouble with social interactions, etc. But there should be a way for every student to help their community.  ]]> 2020-11-30 16:01:26 UTC https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv/wish/971894174 https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv/wish/971903134 Junior high students and high school students should have the choice to volunteer because being forced to volunteer is not volunteerism.]]> 2020-11-30 16:02:59 UTC https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv/wish/971903134 https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv/wish/971906696 Although volunteer work contributes to not only the individual doing so but also their community, the requirement of it makes it not genuine rather than doing it for a cause or because you care, therefore required volunteer work isn't beneficial to character but rather to your public image.]]> 2020-11-30 16:03:36 UTC https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv/wish/971906696 https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv/wish/971907115 2020-11-30 16:03:41 UTC https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv/wish/971907115 https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv/wish/971907503 Students should be able to participate and do volunteer work to not only help themselves but the community as well it would work best if we did it during school too at the same time why should we,our future should not benefit if we did certain things by putting in certain hours of things.Sometimes students cant even participate in theses sort of thing because they cant or have other agendas to attend.This type of subject would work best if it a optional thing.]]> 2020-11-30 16:03:44 UTC https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv/wish/971907503 https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv/wish/971907865 Volunteerism is a good way to make students even slightly contribute to our community. ]]> 2020-11-30 16:03:48 UTC https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv/wish/971907865 https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv/wish/971919769 While schools should require students to do volunteer work, they instead should provide a grade incentive instead of forcing a requirement.]]> 2020-11-30 16:05:50 UTC https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv/wish/971919769 https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv/wish/971920770 Students should not be forced to do volunteer work although it is good for building the community if it's forced less people will care and it wouldn't be volunteer work at that point.]]> 2020-11-30 16:05:59 UTC https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv/wish/971920770 https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv/wish/971922836 High school students shouldn't be forced into volunteering because volunteering, by definition, is for one to subject to doing something on behalf of their own will; being forced to do so isn't volunteering.]]> 2020-11-30 16:06:21 UTC https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv/wish/971922836 https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv/wish/971923617 Students who attend junior high and high schools shouldn't be forced to do volunteer work , it should be an option because volunteerism is an option not a requirement.]]> 2020-11-30 16:06:29 UTC https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv/wish/971923617 https://padlet.com/banchsd/olonotb0iv7pjnsv/wish/971925687 Students should be required to do volunteer work.
