The “Green Cord” Community Service Award Program is an initiative designed to help high school students gain a sense of community service, pride, and ownership. The program is a way to encourage 9th -12th grade students to contribute 50 - 100+ hours of approved community service . Those students meeting the requirements will be recognized as Green Cord award recipients in each high school year they complete the required hours.
Students can be recognized all four years.
Students meeting or exceeding requirements for community service will be presented with a Green Cord award for each year of participation. The minimum requirements are:
Freshmen - 50 hours
Sophomores - 60 hours
Juniors - 75 hours
Seniors - 100 hours
During the senior year, graduates will earn a “Green Cord” to wear during the high school graduation ceremony.
