This program is open to fifteen seventh graders who must apply and be accepted in order to participate. The students visit the Covington Convalescent Home in Hopkinsville, Kentucky once a month. This program is designed to give students a greater appreciation for the elderly. Many of Mahaffey's students are far from their own grandparents and this provides an opportunity for students to relate to an elderly person. Students read, play games and work on crafts with their adopted grandparent.
Holidays provide opportunities for singing and special programs.
The Student Activity Committee consists of an elected representative from each Prime Time. Each grade level meets once a month to discuss problems and solutions that are suggested by the representative's Prime Time. Seventh and eighth graders are eligible for this society in the spring of their seventh or eighth grade year. Scholarship is a key requirement along with service to the community, leadership and character. Students are selected on the basis of a panel of teachers.
