Choosing to be GRATEFUL, choosing JOY

Our choose JOY campaign encourages students to purposefully look at the bright side of life and be thankful for what they have, and in doing so creating a joyful spirit and mindset.

Hope Ambassadors Mentorship Program

Our high school service leaders mentor middle school students and work with their peers to create environments of kindness and compassion. Not only are they helping the middle schoolers with their crochet projects, but will also start a crochet club next year, and hope to use what they have learned to teach others this lifelong skill.

Discussions Worth Having

Guest speakers are invited on campus to deliver TED Talk style presentations to the student body. These motivational messages cover a wide array of topics and provide students with nuggets of wisdom that encourage and inspire them to be the best version of themselves.

12th Man Football and Cheer Camp

Our Leadership and Service students volunteer at the 12th Man Football and Cheer camp designed for those in our community who because of a special need or disability have not had the opportunity to be involved with organized football or cheerleading.
