Information and Resources for Food on the 15th:
This is our Service Learning Project that all sixth grade students must participate in to earn credit for Maryland High School Graduation. Maryland allows students to participate in approved Middle School programs such as Food on the 15th in order to complete this requirement before entering High School. Before graduating High School, students must complete an approved 75 hours of community service to fulfill this requirement. The moral: Encourage your child to participate heartily now while their teachers give them guidance and make it fun instead of waiting until later.
