The Fund for Excellence (FFE) annual fund campaign enhances the HSES experience since 1991. The pandemic may have disrupted our bonds but it certainly has brought us together as a caring community.
We are humbly grateful for your support in this faithful journey to make our students thrive! Together, we can make a difference. |
