Clara Hall, Leader of Pathways, Partnerships and Entrepreneurship K-12, shared why she chose to partner with HEX, “We believe that the Hex High Accelerator program meets the needs and demands of our student community and embodies our College mission statement “Church to the World”. This helps to equip highschoolers with the necessary mindset and skill set needed in today’s society to make a meaningful impact in our world.”

Clara said “This program will provide students with opportunities to develop a range of skills and Global Capabilities. It will support one of the College’s key values of empowering young people to discover their core strengths and values, so that they may grow and succeed in whatever pathway they choose to pursue in life.”
