Dear Parents,<\/p>\n

Knowledge gained in the classroom at High Point University is complimented\u00a0with meaningful experiences that take place beyond the\u00a0classroom walls and\u00a0enrich the souls of our students.\u00a0 After returning from HPU’s Alternative Fall Break<\/a>, a student shared this quote that sums up the purpose of our holistic learning environment:<\/p>\n

“I slept and I dreamed that life is all joy. I woke and I saw that life is all service. I served and I saw that service is joy.”<\/em>
\n– Khalil Gibran<\/p>\n

Your student and their peers continue to amaze me with their thoughtful acts of generosity and service.\u00a0 Below, you will find merely a few examples of our students enriching the lives of others.\u00a0 As we approach the Thanksgiving holiday, these stories remind us all of the values that we cherish.<\/p>\n

Sincerely,<\/p>\n

Gail Tuttle
