Art & Entrepreneurship
ART AND ART SHOW
Throughout the year our students are provided with the opportunity to create their own art pieces. This hard work and creativity culminates in an annual Art Show where patrons, parents and friends of HFO can purchase Art in our auction-style event to support HFO. Not only are our students given the creative freedom to learn a new skill, they are given the opportunity to become “working artists” for the benefit of not just themselves but their peers in HFO.
ENTRREPRENEURSHIP
At HFO we believe that in order to build life long learners, we need to allow our kids to see and explore all facets of the world. Whether it is part of our art show, bringing in speakers or modeling social entrepreneurship as an organization.
“Hope for Opelousas has been a blessing for my family. It gave them a safe place to learn, grown and dream. The love and support from everyone at HFO has been a big part of our journey as a family. I’m forever grateful for the way they invested in my kids, challenged them when needed and believed in their potential. ”
COLLEGE TOURS AND JOB READINESS SPEAKERS
We want our High School and Jr. High Students to start thinking about their plans after high school. We walk with each student on their path and provide opportunities to tour college campuses in the Acadiana area, explore technical careers, learn about fiscal responsibility and hear from inspiring adults as they explore their own growth.
