The Rotary Club of Hopkinsville and Christian County Public Schools are coming together to establish Interact Clubs in the district’s two middle schools beginning next school year. School officials said Interact Clubs are extensions of local Rotary Clubs and seek to bring together young people ages 12-18 to develop leadership skills while discovering the power of Service Above Self. The Hopkinsville Rotary Club board recently approached Superintendent Chris Bentzel with the idea of helping fund the start-up of the clubs. The pilot clubs will focus on middle school programs for 7th and 8th graders with an eye toward launching high school clubs soon.
