Hope Public Schools

Clinton Primary Third and Fourth students recently participated in a Chess Competition at SWAEC.

Hope High School recently hosted a resume workshop for our community where we provided resume assistance and mock interviews to prepare individuals for their future! Thank you to those who volunteered their time to help with this event.

Yerger Middle School students took their field trip to Memphis,TN on yesterday and had an amazing time. The students toured the National Civil Rights Museum at the Lorraine Hotel and gained a wealth of knowledge. Then thanks to numerous community donations the students were able to have a sit down dining experience and eat until they were absolutely full! There are way more pictures to come, but the students were very thankful for yesterday and have already asked when they can do it again. We love that our students had the opportunity to learn outside of the classroom and connect it to their curriculum and teaching from inside the classrooms. Mr. Anderson, Mrs. Simington, Ms. Casey Ms. Gray, Mr. Lard and Ms. Trotter served as chaperones on the trip with the students. Thank you all so much for the support of our students! They will display their knowledge from the museums on February 15th along with other schools at the African American Extravaganza hosted at Hempstead Hall! The doors will open at 4pm and the program will begin at 5:30pm..

Hosea Born shares the latest about the HopeBots Middle School Robotics Team: The HopeBots hosted the Hope Robot Rendezvous tournament this past weekend. There were 19 teams from five schools that showed off their robots and skills they have been working on all year. The tournament even produced the top scores out of all Arkansas teams with El Dorado taking home the Teamwork Championship. It wouldn’t have been a success without all our students who volunteered, each parent who contributed to the tournament, and our fantastic judging team! A special thanks to BHE for letting us use their cafeteria and classrooms for our event. We can’t wait to keep growing our program and bring more competitions to Hope! HopeBots 🤖 ROLL OUT! #GoBobcats #ALLIN #HopeForTheFuture
