Building a Love for Learning

Love for school and knowledge begins with our littlest learners. High school students from The Bishop’s School have embarked on a mission to help build love of learning in ECS Head Start students through a variety of volunteer activities.

So far, The Bishop’s School students have visited Highland Head Start and Harbison Head Start. They plan to also bring the fun to Castle Park Head Start and Zamorano Head Start in the coming months.

At Highland, the student volunteers did yoga with the Head Start students, teaching them healthy movement. At Harbison, they assisted Head Start students in an art activity, encouraging hands-on creativity.

“Student volunteers bring more than just their time to our Head Start classrooms — they bring mentorship, creativity, and joy,” said Harbison Site Supervisor Denise Trejo. “Through fun activities and positive interactions, they inspire our young learners, helping them build confidence, curiosity, and love for learning.” 

ECS is thankful to The Bishop’s School volunteers for giving their time and talent to Head Start — from one student to another. Their friendship and mentorship create meaningful impact in the education of ECS Head Start students.
