Service learning
Mission & Philosophy
The mission of the Service Learning Program at BB&N is to foster a school-wide culture of meaningful civic engagement and social action.
Through the Service Learning Program, students partner with their local and global communities in order to not only impact change, but also to understand the root causes of critical social issues, as well as their role within systems beyond their school and home communities.
By engaging in BB&N’s Service Learning program, students learn to investigate issues of local and global significance, to build connections between themselves and their communities at large, to communicate effectively across differences and gain hands-on experience in teamwork, leadership, and advocacy. In doing so, all students continue to grow in the School’s mission to prepare “students for lives of principled engagement in their communities and the world.”
