Pemi Youth Center

Mr. Sampson's advisees completed a service learning project at The Pemi Youth Center in Plymouth, NH. Students helped with activities at the Youth Center, which offers an empowerment program during after school hours for students ages 10-17 at no cost.  Their mission is to provide a safe and welcoming environment where youth may gather outside of school and gain a sense of community, belonging and self-esteem.
