Milton Hershey School is one of the world’s best private schools, where students from low-income families seeking greater opportunities receive an exceptional educational experience—with all costs covered.

A cornerstone of the MHS student experience is our unique, on-campus home life, in which a group of students live in student homes managed by houseparents. MHS hires married couples from across the country to live on campus and work collaboratively to invest in students’ lives—building relationships, teaching life skills, and developing character. Houseparents teach values outside of the classroom and serve as role models for the students in their care. A houseparent’s role is to be there as each child grows up, be someone they can trust, and help them become the best versions of themselves.

Houseparents are critical to how MHS fulfills its mission to provide opportunity, safety, and stability for the children who need it most.
