Herbert Carter Global Community Magnet

Members of HCGC’s Student Lighthouse Team put Habit 1 into action by serving at the Bright Futures food pantry. Our students prepared 40 food bags and demonstrated what it means to be proactive—stepping up to meet a community need with their time, energy, and leadership. We are proud of their commitment to serving others.

HCGC students are practicing Habit 3: Put First Things First by focusing on what matters most—their learning. These students spent time studying, supporting one another, and staying committed to their academic goals. By prioritizing their responsibilities, they are building strong habits that lead to success both in and out of the classroom.
