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.

• 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.
