Middle School Opportunities
Beyond class themes and projects, Middle School students can engage with the Institute for Social Impact in many ways.
This year, Close Up and the National Coalition of Girls’ Schools will bring together Middle School students, including Hockaday girls, from around the world to build inclusive communities, develop the skills needed for active citizenship, and learn from the stories, the successes, and the setbacks of other young changemakers. Seventh and Eighth Graders can join the Social Impact Club, where they engage in Design Thinking to build leadership skills and create impact within the Hockaday and greater community. Fifth through Eighth Grade students are part of Social Impact Leaders, and attend four sessions throughout the year designed to build leadership skills in students and help them meet the five outcomes of the Institute for Social Impact.
