Planning Service-Learning in an traditional or after-school setting? Let the standards be your guide! The K-12 Service-Learning Standards for Quality Practice were researched and published by National Youth Leadership Council to provide educators with guidance on providing the most high quality Service-Learning for their students. We know now, when Service-Learning is done with quality your students will have the most academic and personal benefits. Each standard includes 4-5 indicators for you to compare to your Service-Learning to help strengthen the quality of your curriculum.
