The HPO is proud of our history working with local schools through our Adopt-A-School program.
For the 2023-2024 season, we are incredibly excited to be launching a pilot project that opens up our program to include one Elementary and one Secondary school by application. All schools in the Greater Hamilton Area are encouraged to apply.
High-priority schools are a focus for the HPO and applications from these schools are weighted more heavily in the application evaluation process and are strongly encouraged to submit an application.
Although our previous schools have all been HWDSB schools, any school from any board in the GHA can apply to be our Adopt-A-School.
THE HPO WOULD LIKE TO CONGRATULATE THIS YEAR’S ADOPT-A-SCHOOL RECIPIENTS
