Thanks everyone for your input. wasn't sure if that was a thing down here. Actually surprised it's not. When I graduated from a NY HS we had to do hours for national honors society as well as a civics class. Good to know, that's very helpful!
@allymansfield:
NHS requires it no matter which district, so NHS kids here would have to. I never actually took a civics class so not sure on that one.
Every extracurricular club or team my kids were on required it as well. That's not a specific respond to this district, but I'm betting it's similar. 4951
