The only book of its kind, Social Issues and Service at the Middle Level offers those teaching middle school students a wealth of practical advice for bringing social issues, service learning, and community service to adolescents in ways that work.

The detailed cases include the authentic voices of both teachers and students in chapters that cross over many disciplines taught to middle schoolers, such as math, science, social studies, language arts, and technology.
