(1) I am concerned about the school board's decision to make every senior participate in 40 hours of community service in order to graduate. (2) Although!
believe that students should volunteer in their communities. I don't agree that
participation should be required. (3) Many teenagers have jobs after school and on
the weekends to help them save money for college. (4) Other students help care for
their younger siblings. (5) Most students are involved in one or more school
activities. (6) Along with all of these responsibilities, students must still study for
class. (7) I understand that the school board wants to show students the importance
of volunteerism, but I think that students will find volunteer projects more rewarding
when they are not forced to participate. (8) I hope that you will give this matter some
thought and consider another course of action.
Sincerely,
Alexis Vargas
What best describes the Author's (Alexis) Viewpoint?
The program could benefit some students
The program should not be required for students.
The school board doesn't know what is the best for students and should not
make choices ever!
