Grauer School Community Service Projects

The Grauer School’s mission is to provide a humanitarian education that helps develop compassionate citizens with the ethical and social leadership qualities necessary to make positive changes in our diverse local, national and global communities. 

Essential to our mission is providing students with the opportunities to use their talents and good will to help others in their community and around the world. Through Grauer School Community Service Projects, our students develop personal purposes while building leadership skills that will serve them and their fellow neighbors near and far, long after the final school day comes to a close.

Importance of Community Service for Students

“The Grauer School offers such unique opportunities for its students to experience new and amazing things world over. As parents, we are deeply grateful for these moments that will shape Kiana's thinking and heart.”
- Tami & Eric H., Grauer Parents

Grauer School community service projects stress the importance of community service for students. This approach cannot be underestimated for its effectiveness in helping develop compassionate, globally minded human beings. Community service allows our students to learn valuable life skills while providing assistance to people and ecosystems in the most need of help. The importance of community service for students at The Grauer School includes:

  • Creation of special, potentially life-altering bonds while increasing awareness of cultures, backgrounds and lifestyles/walks-of-life other than students’ own
  • Accumulation of psychosocial knowledge and new experiences that help students develop enhanced intra and interpersonal communication skills
  • Cultivation of personal satisfaction from helping others that helps ease feelings of isolation, stress and even conditions like depression 
     

Student Community Service Programs

There are many ways to get involved with student community service programs at The Grauer School. Students can participate in school-sponsored events, as well as activities organized by their teachers and on expeditions. Many students and their families already donate their time through organizations that matter to them, and our student community service programs can help accentuate this commitment to volunteerism. We have many students and alumni who create their own events to raise awareness for an important personal cause. Please take a look at some Grauer School community service project examples below:
