Waukee Silver Cord Recognizes Summer Achievements
The Waukee Silver Cord Program instills in students the importance of community service. The program encourages students to be accountable for investing in their education and community. Students receive recognition when they reach 25, 50, 100, and 175 service hours. Students who volunteer 175 hours by April 30 of their senior year earn the distinction of wearing a silver honor cord during graduation.
There are approximately 915 students currently participating in the program. Students who reached recognition milestones during the summer before the 2022-23 school year include:
