Hope Public Schools is excited to announce its Aspiring Leaders Fellowship Cohort 2 participants! The fellowship is a two-year program that focuses on growing Hope Public School leaders to ensure that our school district has effective leaders who embrace change in a way that affects the hearts and minds of our stakeholders through empowerment, motivation, and ownership. Additionally, the program offers work-based opportunities for participants to develop new leadership skills based on capacity building that is low on “the blame game” and "high on support" through effective articulation of the rationale for change and work collaboratively in implementing prioritized needs in a way that is appropriate and beneficial to all stakeholders. The participants will be exposed to and apply new leadership skills provided through targeted leadership work-based learning opportunities and experiences.

Dear Parents: In an effort to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month, Beryl Henry Elementary School has organized a Dance Party to celebrate the “Muchachas y Muchachos” that attend our school and HAPS (5th and 6th Grade) October 12, 5pm-7pm. The theme is Muchachos and Muchachas which in Spanish means, boys and girls. Let’s all dress like latinos and celebrate diversity!
Here are the guidelines for our school dance:
Students must be checked-in and checked-out by a parent, which means that parents must be present at the check-in and check-out times.
Once they come in, they can’t leave the premises unless there’s a parent present to check them out.
Beryl Henry Elementary School will provide chaperones for the dance party to ensure a safe and fun environment all throughout the dance.
The admission fee is $5.00 USD at the door.
School Dress Code will be enforced as specified in the student handbook.
There will be a concession stand snacks such as candy, chips, soft drinks, hotdogs, pickles and nachos. The price range for the concessions will vary from $1.00 to $3.00
Students that have had multiple disciplinary problems aren’t going to be allowed to attend the dance. No Exceptions.
Also, as a part of our celebration, students will be allowed to dress to represent Hispanic Heritage Month on Tuesday, October 15, during our school day!
