OUR MISSION
Community Is the Starting Point.
Our mission is to bring parents and community together to expand opportunities and strengthen the student experience at Hancock.
Our Vision
A Hancock community where students can go further because the people around them are willing to show up, share knowledge, build connections, contribute resources, and open doors.

People Power the Mission.
Friends of Hancock is built around participation. Parents, families, alumni, professionals, businesses, and community members can contribute time, knowledge, relationships, ideas, resources, and financial support. Fundraising is one tool, but people and community participation remain at the center of the organization.
Parent & Family Participation
Parents and families are central to the organization. Their involvement, presence, ideas, and commitment help strengthen the connection between students, families, and the broader community.
Volunteerism
People showing up—giving time, lending a hand, sharing skills, and helping turn ideas and opportunities into action.
Community Connections
Relationships with alumni, professionals, businesses, universities, nonprofits, and community organizations can open pathways students might not otherwise encounter.
Student Opportunities
Participation ultimately matters because it can expand what students are able to experience, explore, learn, and pursue.
Professional Knowledge
Parents, alumni, professionals, and community members bring experience and expertise that can become a valuable resource for students.
Long-Term Involvement
Friends of Hancock is designed to keep people connected and engaged from one generation of Hancock families to the next.
