Final Thoughts Before this year I had done literally no
community service. This year I totaled 11 hours of community
service and actually enjoyed all of it. My favorite event was when
I went and read to kids at S. L. Mason Elementary School for Read
Across America. I thought I was going to not like it and dreaded it
but I actually liked it. I enjoyed reading to the little kids and
has really helped me decide to be a teacher when I graduate from
college. Community service was something I enjoyed this year, and I
will definitely continue to do it in the future.
