About Inspiratio

Formed in 2012 in response to community requests to support HSP parents in their calling to faithful parenthood, Inspiratio: Inspiration for The Soul is a curriculum series of speakers, events, and content presented throughout the school year. With the understanding that families are always the primary educators of their children, we recognize that parents, faculty, and staff must successfully collaborate in the success of each and every child. The Inspiratio series will highlight critical topics to facilitate and enhance this collaboration.
