Service as Action (SA)

Students take action when they apply what they are learning in the classroom and beyond. Students at IB World schools work towards being caring members of the community by demonstrating a commitment to service and making positive contributions to the lives of others in their local and global communities. 

At Académie Lafayette, MYP students are expected to participate in teacher-directed and student-initiated Service as Action activities and reflect on how those activities have contributed to positive learning outcomes.
