NHS Students Serve at the Houston Food Bank

Living Out Leadership, Scholarship, Service and Character

Last weekend, students from Cypress Christian School’s National Honor Society (NHS) dedicated their time and energy to serving at the Houston Food Bank, one of the largest charitable food distributors in the nation. Through their hard work and teamwork, our students helped pack an incredible 9,000 meals for families in need across the greater Houston area.

The heart behind NHS is more than academic excellence. Founded on the pillars of Scholarship, Service, Leadership, and Character, the National Honor Society calls students to go beyond the classroom and use their gifts to make a positive impact on the world around them. Service is not simply an optional component of the program—it is a defining feature of what it means to be an NHS member.

This project was a powerful opportunity for our students to put that mission into action. Working in assembly lines, our members packed food, organized supplies, and supported the Food Bank staff with humility and enthusiasm. The students served joyfully, knowing that every box filled represented support, dignity and hope for a family facing difficult circumstances.

For many students, the experience was both eye-opening and deeply fulfilling. They saw firsthand how collective effort—many hands working together—can create meaningful change in a short amount of time. Projects like these help shape our students into compassionate leaders who understand the importance of giving back.

We are incredibly proud of our NHS members for showing up with a heart to serve and for representing CCS with integrity, kindness and perseverance. Their work made a real difference in our community, and we praise God for the opportunity to serve others in His name.

A heartfelt thank-you to all students, parent volunteers and staff who helped make this service project possible.

Praise God, and go Warriors!
