Partners in Education Returns!
Hixson is excited to announce that we will once again be back in the classroom as part of our Partners in Education program! For the 2021-2022 school year, Hixson associates will be working on multiple initiatives with our partner school, St. Francis de Sales, which provides education to children in grades pre-k through eight. These initiatives include:
- Traveling Bears, which provides each first-grade student with a special bear that “sends” postcards from its journeys throughout the year.
- Pen Pals, a program designed to improve writing and reading skills by pairing second-grade students with a pen pal from Hixson. Throughout the year, the students, working with their teacher, write and send letters to their Hixson pen pal and receive letters in return.
- Junior Achievement. Hixson associates volunteer in third through eighth-grade classrooms to teach J.A. lesson plans on topics such as financial literacy, career readiness, and the basics of a free-market economy.
The Hixson Partners in Education program is just one way our associates help realize our commitment to provide service to the communities in which we live and work.
