Service Learning

Eastside Prep’s Vision, To Inspire Students to Create a Better World, guides our service program. The goal of the service program is to teach students about the needs, issues, and problems facing their community and world and then to empower students to take the lead in meeting those needs, addressing those issues, and solving those problems. So instead of compelling students to serve as part of a graduation requirement, we inspire them to serve. The difference is notable. Instead of students learning that service is something they have to do, they learn that service is something they get to do. Instead of following the school’s plan for service, students follow their own plan, work to address the issues they care most about, and engage in authentic service. Throughout their time at EPS, students have several opportunities to engage in service projects with classmates and teachers to fulfill our vision to create a better world.

Below are some of the many partner organizations we work with as we develop meaningful service opportunities for our students. If you would like to engage in individual service, we encourage you to reach out directly to any of these impactful organizations.
