VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY DESCRIPTIONS:
Highland Christian School offers prayer groups for men and women. Anyone with a heart for HCS, whether parent, grandparent, alumni, or neighbor – you are encouraged to uphold the school community in prayer, and this is an excellent way to do it. The men’s and women’s prayer groups meet regularly throughout the school year (separately) to pray for the needs of the school, the families, and the community. Regular attendance is encouraged, but not required. “For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them.” Matthew 18:20. If you would like more information about one of the prayer groups, check here.
TRIP stands for Tuition Reduction Incentive Program. It is a great way to reduce your tuition by purchasing gift cards for everyday use or to hand out as gifts. Every Tuesday there are groups who sort the gift card orders. It is usually a two-hour commitment, once a month. We are also looking for someone to apprentice for the chairperson position. If you would like to volunteer for the TRIP program and/or learn the job for a year under the current coordinator, check here.
Several times a year, we need 20-25 people to assist with indoor and outdoor work projects. The projects may include painting, weeding, spreading mulch, trimming low hanging branches, assembly of materials, cleaning, etc. Dates are TBD. If you are willing to labor with us, let us know!

etc…A resale Marketplace is a thrift store that benefits HCS in many ways. If you find yourself with a few hours a week or just one afternoon a year, your help is needed. Be sure to watch for your student’s class sort night!

With so many new families at HCS this year, we thought having a Husky Ambassador per grade would help with the transition! The Husky Ambassador would be the contact person/family for new families and students. They can check-in, see how the school year is going, and be there to answer any questions that might arise. Essentially the Husky Ambassador would be the liaison for HCS! If you are interested in being a Husky Ambassador, please email Jessica at the e-mail above!
