Senior students give back to community
HUBBARD, Ohio (WKBN) — One Trumbull County district's senior class is kicking off its last month of high school by giving back to their community.
Ninety-two members of Hubbard High School's Class of 2025 are learning a lesson on giving back.
'We're just out in the community, you know, having some fun, cleaning some stuff up, doing some service,' said senior Alex Hackwelder.
Willingly trading a morning in the classroom for manual labor, they're volunteering to do work on different projects at nine different locations across the city and township.
'We're helping the fire department and washing all their trucks and ambulances,' said Malia Hivner.
'There's some blisters, a little bit of dirt, these kids got wet at the fire station, but so it's a fun day but they're also doing some work,' said senior class advisor Andrea Stamp.
It's the fourth year for the district's annual Senior Day of Service.
'The kids enjoy giving back then they talk about it, it's a memory for them,' Stamp said. 'It's good for both the community and the school.'
The seniors say It's a fun-filled way to kick off the last month before graduation.
'It's just a great day to get our senior class together and come out and be with our teachers and help out around our community and kinda like we're doing many different last hurrah's with our class,' Hivner said.
'We get that time in class together, but now we get some time outside of class to, you know, not only spend some time together but also do it in a good way that gives back to you know the people of Hubbard that supported us through you know our four years of high school,' Hackwelder said.
