8  I learned a lot of things in service learning, one has been a lot of respect for my community.  Having to wake up early in the morning and go participate in service learning has taught me responsibility and a greater respect for the people who participate all the time.

9  I would have to say I have had a lot of fun time in FYE and doing service learning.  Even though there were sometimes where I didn’t want to participate I did it anyway because most of my peers were participating.

10  Though there are sometimes that I want to forget, Mrs. Tillman's FYE class is one I want to remember for a life time.  I would like to thank her for the wonderful teachers she has set us up with over this whole year, and the guidance she has given us.
