Senior service is an important time for every senior. If you don't achieve your required hours then the penalties for not completing the task is you will not graduate. These are some hefty fines. but the service program is for a good cause. WE AS STUDENTS GET THE CHANCE TO HELP OTHERS WHO AER LESS FORTUNATE THEN WE ARE. Helping the elderly may seem tiring and boring but when you are with the folks you learn a lot about them; you learn their stories and learn who they are and how they lived their life. It is a different experience when you are volunteering with children. The children learn from you and you tell your stories. Children are our future and schools are a good place to do senior service hours.
For my senior service project I will be doing my hours at the Martha Jones Elementary school in Westwood. I chose this site because I know a few of the teachers who already work at this school. I hope I can make a difference in these young students lives.
