Young Citizenship Award
Due to the Covid Pandemic and the effect it has had on the local schools, the club has been unable to present the Young Citizenship Awards this school year.
.
While there are many awards that seek to honor outstanding high school students, Exchange's Young Citizenship Award rewards worthwhile, hard working youths at the middle school level. This program is designed to honor pre-high school students who daily demonstrate good citizenship both at school and at home. It does not necessarily seek to salute star scholastic or athletic performers. Instead, it singles out and encourages young people who, although they may not be at the head of their class, are hones, hard-working, helpful and fair. Students are selected by their teachers and are given an application to submit for the award. There are three Young Citizenship award dates, usually in December, March, and June.
