In this month's Editor's Corner, the Field Editor discusses the importance of community-school-student partnerships. Science activities that take students outside the school walls can combine the best aspects of service to the community, problem-based learning, and lessons in citizenship. He highlights several articles that develop this theme in this issue of The Science Teacher (TST). In addition, he brings to light some of the upcoming themes that will be featured in the 2005-2006 issues of TST.
