Marshall School

Welcome to Marshall School's Community Service Blog. My name is Michael Horgan. Each of the 15 grade 7 students in our class is learning that to be in service to one's community is not only fun but it provides opportunities for the kids to educate themselves, deepen their understanding of things in which they are interested, and discover how rewarding it is to be a member of a team that produces something of value for others.
We invite other schools who are doing CSL or those who would like to do it to tune in once in a while to what we are doing.  Perhaps we could connect to share ideas and experiences. For example, in the Spring the grade 7s will be undertaking 2 large service learning projects: a Senior prom for senior citizens and we will build a community garden.  If you have anything to share, please feel free. If you are interested in trying something similar, we will be happy to be your guinea pigs.
