When is the best time to meet with my Squad?
Hope Squad requires that you meet with the Squad at least once a month. Advisors may determine what meeting time works best in their school settings. The most ideal time to meet with a Hope Squad is as a class, allowing for the maximum time to spend with the Squad planning activities and teaching the curriculum. Setting up a new class can be a barrier to implementation, so there is flexibility! Many Squads meet during lunch, flex time, or as an extracurricular activity before or after school.
