PARENT COMMUNITY
At HOPE Academy, families are essential to our mission. Parents, grandparents, and alumni serve, pray, learn, and celebrate together, strengthening our Christ-centered community and supporting teachers and students throughout the year.
Hands of HOPE
Hands of HOPE is our parent volunteer ministry. Its purpose is to support teachers and staff in mission delivery by building and maintaining an engaged parent community. Volunteers help with classroom needs, community gatherings, prayer and spiritual care, hospitality, and student support.
-
Serving opportunities are posted throughout the year and coordinated through Finalsite sign-ups

Some roles require an application, training, and a completed background check

Flexible options exist for on-campus and at-home service
