High School - Leaders' Core
Advisor - Holly Whittington

The Leaders’ Core jumpstarted its year with a Fiesta Friday Faculty Feast honoring the high school teachers, administration, custodial staff, and cafeteria workers.  The group served homemade enchiladas, rice, beans, and salad, topped off with brownies and cheesecake for dessert.  Both faculty and students enjoyed the festive occasion!

The Leaders’ Core and the SHHS Student Council are once again teaming up to help their community.  In October, the two organizations joined forces for  the American Heart Association Walkathon.  They raised approximately $400 for the cause.  Leaders’ Core has also helped with the SH Fall Festival, babysat numerous times for the primary campus, tutored Intermediate and Middle School students, helped with Relay for Life, visited Asbury House,among numerous other activities.  Presently, the group is spearheading the can food drive.  The high school 3rd block classes with the most cans per student or the best can sculpture will win a pizza and movie day, compliments of the Leaders’ Core.

Although Leaders’ Core students are involved in numerous philanthropic activities, their main goal this year is to continue raising funds for a water playground in the new Spring Hill Park.  So far the group has raised approximately $30,000.  To add to their fund-raising coffers, the group is offering a greenhouse for sale.  The group gave it to the school several years ago, and it has not been used as intended.  It is custom-made and the asking price is $3,000.  Interested parties, contact Holly Whittington at the High School.
