Jane Hammatt-Kavaloski |
Malcolm Shabazz City High School, Madison, WI |
|
Jane Hammatt-Kavaloski plans to retire at the end of this school year, 20 years after teaching the first service-learning class at Malcolm Shabazz City High School in Madison, Wis. That class, “The Mississippi Connection,” was just the beginning for Hammatt-Kavaloski, a school social worker, who later became coordinator of service-learning at Shabazz. Under her leadership, service-learning has become an integral part of the Shabazz curriculum, involving every student. More than 60 different types of service-learning classes have been offered, encompassing every discipline and connecting with hundreds of organizations and communities locally, nationally, and internationally. Thousands of youth and adults have been impacted by the service-learning program at Shabazz. The school’s stellar program prompted its selection as a Service-Learning Leader School in 1999. From 1999 to 2001, Hammatt-Kavaloski coordinated 84 formal and informal service-learning presentations, which reached nearly 2,000 people, including 670 college students majoring in education. |
