Growing to Greatness 2004: The State of Service-Learning Report

Growing to Greatness is the first comprehensive national study of the state of service-learning in kindergarten through 12th grade. It documents the unfolding story of service-learning, providing information to improve implementation, inform public policy, and give a clear picture of the many ways young people contribute to society. This first report from the project provides 18 state synopses of service-learning history, profiles of national organizations, and easy-to-read charts and graphs that build the case for service-learning. It is a critical publication for school administrators, graduate students of education or public policy, and teachers involved in "making the case" for service-learning to school boards.
