ABOUT HSC COWORKS

At HSC CoWorks, we liken the challenge of the HSC to climbing a mountain, Mount HSC©.

With this in mind, the goal of a student’s HSC year is to become an accomplished mountain climber because let’s face it, life is just a series of mountains (or challenges) and if a student can develop the skills needed to overcome challenges now, they will be in a much better position for life after school has finished.

However, conquering Mount HSC© is never going to be easy and with so many possible distractions for teenagers these days (Tik Tok, Netflix, Instagram, gaming and phones in general to name a few..) it has never been harder for them to stay motivated and focused on the task at hand.

Simply wanting to do well isn’t enough when we are climbing Mount HSC. 

Jesse was an incredible source of motivation and inspiration for me throughout my HSC journey. He consistently pushed me to challenge myself and I am so grateful for his dedication, enthusiasm, and willingness to go above and beyond.
