Community Service
We are excited to announce that starting this year, middle school students will have opportunity to work within their own community, including their school and the greater Lincolnton and Lincoln County area. Through volunteering, they will learn how to identify problems in their community and gain the skills to solve them. We believe this program will not only benefit the community but also empower our students to become active and engaged citizens.
