Big difference. Private school. Knowing that's part of the requirement for graduation.
Give back to what? Some of these kids can bearly eat, living in the poorest part of town and yet, they are told to give and do work for nothing. I understand your reasoning but that's not for everyone and it should not be mandatory. My point is, these people think its great, when someone else is spending their time. if tables are turned, then it is No, no, and hell no for them.
