Fund-a-need

The fund-a-need is the highlight of our annual fundraising efforts. During the live auction, the fund-a-need is an opportunity for the community to come together and support a special project or initiative within the school. It provides support where support is needed most. Past fund-a-need priorities helped HRS furnish our new middle school, expand technology, launch the Joan Beauregard Endowment for Discovery and Enrichment, and so much more. In addition, onequarter of proceeds are directed to the financial aid endowment to provide access to our program.

Every single donation to our fund-a-need allows HRS to maintain vibrant and dynamic programming.

This year, fund-a-need contributions will be used to purchase new science and social studies curricula. High quality curricula ensures lessons progress in a clear sequence, building knowledge and skills as students move through each grade level. At HRS, out of the box options don’t work.

Our teachers develop and craft lessons with reading and writing levels in mind. We navigate the language needs of our students, honor state standards, and ensure instruction is structured, sequential, and multisensory. Investment in curriculum means investing in our teaching faculty to provide professional development and coaching to support teachers.

The new curricula and supplemental programs will deliver a wealth of research-based print and digital resources to help build and support strong literacy foundations, including a variety of intervention supports to meet the needs of every student.

Every dollar raised will support our faculty, staff, and students. Every gift, no matter the size, makes a difference - a wide variety of giving levels make it possible for everyone to participate. We humbly invite everyone to invest in the future success of our students by helping build their skills supported by rich, research-based curriculum.
