The Hope High Optimized (H2O) Summer Program helps incoming first years adjust to their new high school in the weeks before the school year starts. Along with the H2O After School Program, which takes place during the year, these programs offer Hope High School students the opportunity to explore a wide range of activities from cooking to public speaking. The Swearer Center partners with Hope High School through a federally funded 21st Century Learning Centers grant. This grants supports academic enrichment programs outside normal school hours.
