Should public high schools require community service hours?

[Platypus]

hell no, for several reasons

1.Schools should not require students to do the same work prisoners do
2.Because schools are more like prisons, this will greatly increase the drop out rate.
3.Depressing high school students is like shooting fish in a barrel, this does nothing to help them if it is enforced.
4. Altruism is something one cannot learn in school, it's more or less something that a person develops through good character. It's something that cannot be taught.

Will I bother?
