We previously published a list of the dates for the upcoming 2024-25 school year approved by the school board. Some of the dates were listed incorrectly and we have attached the corrected versions of those documents (one in English and one in Spanish) that you can view, print, etc. We apologize for any confusion the previous release may have caused. Thanks to everyone who helped make this calendar (and these revisions/translations) possible!



Reminder: the clinic will be closed for spring break from March 15th to March 22nd. Also as it turns out CABUN (the company we work with) is closed March 19th for good friday. We will resume services Monday April 1st.

Dr. Crossley spent time today as a SUPER SUB in the cafeteria at Beryl Henry! He says, "I’ve been BHE today. I had lunch myself. It was really good! Some of the students asked about choices. I talked to Ms. Holyfield and she had four options. They also have snack bar." Providing options for lunch is another way Hope Public Schools is ALL IN! Thanks to all the hard-working folks in Food Service!

This past weekend, Hope Public Schools held the 2024 Magnet Fair for students to check out all the options they have at Yerger, Beryl Henry and HAPS. Students at those schools flew drones, put on singing performances, demonstrated robotics, and more! There was a great turn out! Thanks to all the students, teachers, and parents for coming out to the event!

Testing Tips:
Arrive at school on time each day; prior to 7:50 a.m.
Try to avoid appointments during the week of testing so that your child can complete his/her testing sessions.
Try to make sure that your child is present each day of testing to avoid having to do make-up testing.
Try to avoid screen time the week of testing prior to bedtime.
Make bedtime early so that your child can get a good night's rest.
Make sure your child gets a good night's sleep each night. If your child eats breakfast at school, have him/her there early to ensure getting to class on time.
Encourage your child to do his/her best each day because testing is very important.
