Personal Writing: Working Experiences From School and Community Service Projects Throughout my high school education I have participated in many school and community service projects. My participation in school and community service activities has helped me grow and develop skills I will need in the real world. By participating in school and community service activities I have gotten the opportunity to obtain team working and people person skills. I have also been able to use my experiences from my participation in such activities to help me grow and see what the real world is like.
