Service Learning

We recognize that strong service learning programs integrate community service into the total school program, including the academic curriculum, through activities involving civic responsibility and citizenship.

We are pleased to share the following resources:

Case Studies: This case study features key advice for building a quality service learning program from the award-winning Colegio San Ignacio de Loyola, San Juan, P.R.

Program Evaluation Tool: Specific criterion for schools to use as a program evaluation tool or to apply for a Program of Distinction in Service Learning.

School Contacts: Contact information for member schools that have demonstrated excellence in service learning. We encourage you to use other schools as a resource. Set up a time to tour a program and learn from each other’s experiences. Ask questions. Get to know each other. Learn!

Colegio San Ignacio De Loyola, San Juan, P.R.
