Abstract:
Grode, a teacher at Hoboken Charter School in New Jersey, shows how the K-12 school, which includes many low-income students, makes service learning a cornerstone of its culture and curriculum. She describes annual school-wide service learning projects, including a student march down Hoboken's main thoroughfare on Martin Luther King Day with students carrying posters related to their study of civil rights. Teachers creatively weave activities related to service learning and social justice into lessons and units.
