Dear Parents, HPU prepares students for lives of both success and significance. Beyond the valuable mentorship your student receives in the classroom, we understand that providing students with experiential learning opportunities narrows the distance on their personal journey from youth to accomplished adult. Instead of waiting for the type of life lessons that may organically transpire over the course of time, […]
