Community Service: Mandatory or Voluntary?

Loupe, Diane

School Administrator, v57 n7 p32-34,36-39 Aug 2000

The success of mandatory programs depends on careful preparations, stakeholder buy-in, academic merits, program quality, staff support, safeguards for students, accurate recordkeeping, and recognition of long-term educational benefits.
