Hope Squad is a special TA class for 7th, 8th, and 9th graders, guided by a teacher advisor. Members are nominated for their ability to show friendship and acceptance to everyone, fostering a positive atmosphere at South Hills. Trained in the Hope Squad curriculum, these exceptional students teach lessons, plan events like Hope Week or Day of Hope, school-wide community activities, and lunch time activities. They are school leaders who help new students feel welcome and reach out to those needing a friend, a listening ear, or positive support. Their impact enriches the middle school experience for all. Students must apply every spring and be approved to join Hope Squad.
