▶ Your Answer :
Some people argue that unpaid community service should be included in the high school curriculum. I agree with the idea that high school students take part in community activities and learn something valuable outside of the classrooms.
Firstly, students could experience sense of connection from the unpaid community service. Working for a charity, improving the neighbourhood or teaching sports to younger children can make students feel that they are one of the members of the community. Students will enjoy the fact that they are contributing to the society where they live in. For example, I felt I was a valuable person when I took part in the community service in my high school, which was cleaning the contaminated shoreline, so I still take part in those kinds of activities whenever I can.
Secondly, it is not easy for young students to find opportunities themselves if schools do no have programs for it. It is because normally students are preoccupied with academic study and there are not enough time for them to consider about contributing their own community. However, once they have chances to attain experiences, they might be willing to help others again in the future even when they become adults. For this reason, I believe it is best to give students chances to engage activities for the community so that we can ensure that students grow as valuable members of our society.
In conclusion, I believe that it is undoubtly a good idea to have unpaid community service in high school curriculum so that students can learn it is important not only to achieve high grades but also being helpful members of society.
