HSO HAPPENINGS

We ended the year strong and are very thankful for all those that supported us. We look forward to another successful year in 2025-2026, but we can't do it without your contributions- financially, spiritually, physically, or otherwise! Please pray over the summer for our children, our school, our supporters, and that we will be able to accomplish all we can with our families support next school year! The HSO extends our prayers to all of you for an enjoyable, restful, and blessed summer. We will begin next school year's meetings in August. I look forward to seeing all of you there.
