HOBART | Hobart Kiwanis Club offers elementary schools in Hobart an opportunity to have students participate in the Bring Up Grades, or BUG, program.

BUG is a program designed to provide recognition to students who raise their grades into an acceptable range and maintain or continue to raise them from one grading period to the next, or to improve and maintain good citizenship.

By creating rewarding experiences for students, the BUG program helps each child maximize personal growth opportunities, said Sharon Tarry of the Hobart Kiwanis Club in a written news release. "Students who achieve their personal goal are recognized by being placed on the school's BUG Honor Roll and presented with a BUG certificate and other giveaways by the Hobart Kiwanis Club," explained Tarry.
