aptitude [2]. When community service is integrated into a school’s curriculum, it hasbeen found to increase students’ enjoyment of learning, academic motivation, and performance[2-3]. In adults, reports have shown that volunteering improves physical and mental health,boosts self-esteem, and increases overall happiness [4]. Students who support communityengagement initiatives such as volunteering related to their discipline, gain applicable experienceand advocate for their careers [5].Service learning is one type of community service in which projects are assigned within astudent’s curriculum [6]. Within the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, andMathematics (STEM), [7] research has been conducted on how to improve student retention

Costigan (2020)discussed the use of two CBR projects to advance student learning in research and courseworkand illustrate to students what it means for research to have an impact. Mello-Goldner (2019)described the integration of CBR in a two-semester course and its impact on undergraduatestudents. Through the engagement with external community organizations, students wereprovided with a larger and more varied data set. In addition, students completed a conference-style poster and learned how to present results to the college community.Despite the rewards that come with adopting or implementing CBR, it can be challenging tomeet community needs and university

Theschool system integration provides a consistent platform for the GOAL programming whichensures longevity of the program and its ability to reach intended audiences. Post launch, therehas been interest from other school systems to utilize GOAL, but logistics of implementation(e.g., disconnection between administrators and in-classroom implementers) creates a lot ofinertia toward getting relationships started. This factor has kept collaborations from expanding tothe scale of PGCPS or MCPS. While the COVID pandemic created a lot of chaos, it alsoprovided a unique opportunity where action was necessary.
