Teachers are good and environment is good

The school administration at Hopewell is amazing. They may be thought of as tough at times however they are always striving to help the students grow into respectful, hardworking, honest, educated children who take responsibility for themselves. I believe they also assist us parents in taking responsibility for our actions and our responsibilities in relation to our children's education and growth. I am not proud, I will admit it took the Assistant Principal having an honest discussion with me and my child to open my eyes and see that I was not supporting my children the best way I could or taking responsibility at home for my children's education and their actions/behaviors at school. Thank you to the Assistant Principal, Principal and all the teachers for helping me to help my children. This is a wonderful caring school and I hope it does not change with the new Principal coming in. I hope very much that the current Assistant Principal stays on for a long time. I want all of my children to have his guidance.

DO NOT SEND SPECIAL NEEDS KIDS HERE!. Just in case you didn't hear me do not under any circumstances send your special needs child to this school. They do not follow IP's they are verbally abusive to the special needs children when they start to struggle. And if your child happens to have some behavioral issues oh boy you better wait they do not know how to handle the exasperate the problems they do not care they have no compassion they have no feelings all they care about are test scores, and data. And if you think for one minute that you're going to go to the principal vice principal or anybody in a ministrative to get help when the teachers go Rogue think again they are even worse than the teachers they are rude they are ugly they do not know how to handle special needs kids and they will cause you all kinds of problems. They will set your child up to fail and they don't care at all. Don't move into this district you will regret it!

Most of the teachers are good, however the administration is a joke. My son has been bullied by the same child since he started at this school and nothing is ever done. Administration and some staff DO NOT respond to concerns or even just emails asking how students are doing. I’ll be pulling my children out and sending them to private school very soon.

Teachers take time to get to know the learning styles of each student. The school is clean. All staff is polite and very helpful. Teaching children community outreach as well as high educational standards.

Beautiful school inside and outside. Very well kept and neat. Teachers are all very nice and welcoming even if they are just passing you in the hallway. My children's communication with the teachers is awesome. My son did have one bullying experience and when I addressed it to the teacher, she said Yes I saw and already handled the situation with a warning and spoke to his parents. They are on top of things way more than other schools are.

My kids loved this school and I am very happy with it. In a state with less then stellar schools, its nice to find one that is above the rest!

I do not like this school!!!!!!!!!!! I think that they need better teachers!!! If a teacher does not know how to deal with a child with anxiety, depression and adhd, they do NOT need to be teaching!!! The principal is very rude and does not care about the feelings of a child as long as she can be seen or heard!!! I am very upset with the school!!!! They didn't even test him/her like they are suppose to, they just went by the test scores from 2nd grade, wow, really, how's that for an education????

Not really impressed with this school. My special needs granddaughter is enrolled here. The only thing good that I can say about this school is that she loves her teachers (but then, she loves everybody). We asked that she be held back last year (to repeat 2nd grade). The principal insisted that she go to 3rd grade. She can't read... she can't write. Last year she was 'too advanced' to hold back. Now they want to put her in a class where she will have no expectations.. It appears they've given up. I'm hoping her parents will pull her out and turn to home schooling.

My granddaughter is in her third year at Hopewell and the staff are excellent. She is triving and learning is a very positive environment. She has earned respect from the staff and is beyond her age in maturity. They are very encouraging to her and are always eager to help if needed. Love this school. Yvonne Avant
