Then & Now

 
Then…
   
 
Mesa Service Learning was initiated in 1993 when a small network of teachers gathered to share ideas. In 1995 the first Advisory Board convened, and the program has grown significantly every year. A few small grants helped seed “Mesa Service Learning Project.”
   
 
    Now…    
     Sixteen years later we are a district-funded department of Mesa Unified Schools, part of the Curriculum and Instruction team. The Service Learning Department has a full time director and program assistant who manage the K-12 program for this district of 73,000 students. Leading the network are Service Learning Coaches at secondary schools and an Advisory Board of teachers, students and leaders from various communtity organizations.
