Hopkins Elementary School

I have 3 kids go here worst school ever. Home work is giving 9n Monday for the whole week but the homework do not contain the materials that the kids are learning during the week of the homework is assigned. In all graded. Ask year teacher they say to refresh what they learned last year. Really so to learn what they are doing nowell wait until next year. Lol the principal worried about how cute she looked like she trying to go out with her friends. Teacher use the agenda to tell the kids Behavior which is always on gold but when you write a letter or comment inside they don't read it. It's just a bad school.

My two daughters had a great year of 2012-2013 both teachers were awesome,The parent center is a great resource for the parents. I just wish they could have more afterschool activities for children.

My niece is in first grade and goes to this school and the things they're teaching her is the stuff she already knows from us teaching her at home. I think the school caters more to the hispanic community because they are the majority and i guess most of them are behind and they're having to go backward to try to get them up to the level of learning they're suppose to be at. We have been thinking about home schooling her because we dont want her to be falling behind when she's suppose to be working at a first grade level and not at kindergaten being taught her ABC's. I will say that everyone there is very nice and i will give them 5 stars for that but a 2 for the education part.

i will say that the administration and the teachers here seem to care for the kids and that they try their best to help them succeed. However, first impressions stick with you. Upon entering the school i always feel unwelcome by the door greeter. She always seems to look at me as if i am an awful person. Although when i volunteer for the pta she is very nice then. i would change her position if i could. she shouldnt be the first person parents see when they come to the school. Also, my son was put into esol when the only language he speaks is english and i wasnt informed of this till 4 months into the school year.
