Common Good

This servic project that I have done is a great opportunity for young kid's to get a head start on assignments and recieve any extra help that they may need. This project is helpful to the community becuase many kid's can't go home directly after school. Since some of those kid's can't go home right after school, they go to homework club. Homework Club is a safe environment that keeps kid's off the streets and in school to get a jump start on school work. Teachers take time out of their day to make sure that these students are recieving the help that they need. Teacher's spend enough hours as it is teaching students, so why would they want to teach a few more hours after school? Teacher's do this becuase they want what's best for the students and keep them in a safe environment. My experience working with these kid's has impacted me in a big way. It make's me realize that you do have people who care about your needs and there's teachers that are willing to sit down and help you. Not only are the teachers there just to teach, but they build friendships with these students and that's what i'd like to take and apply to my interaction with my peers. At MSJ they already have programs such as homework club. Some of these programs include Ryken, DePaul, NHS, and many others.
