Hillsborough Comes Together to Support Project Graduation
A strong community looks out for its young people, and in Hillsborough, that spirit shines through Project Graduation. Led by a dedicated group of parent volunteers, almost all of whom have children who graduated from Hillsborough High School, the program brings families and community members together around a shared goal: celebrating the town’s graduates while helping keep them safe.
Graduation night is an exciting milestone, but it can also bring risks for teens, including underage drinking, impaired driving, car accidents, and other unsafe situations. Project Graduation offers students a fun, supervised, substance-free way to celebrate with their classmates, helping keep them off the streets and away from potentially dangerous parties.
