Thank you Hopewell for All You Do!

Way to go Hopewell on a very successful canned food drive!  We have collected over 6,000 food items.  Thank you for all of your donations that have made this drive a success.


Thank you to the students and faculty that attended 11Alive's Rachel's Challenge event at the Georgia Dome.  Our students presented our school's kindness chain, contributing to the 10 miles of kindness chains donated by area schools, organizations, and businesses. 

We hope that everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday with their friends and family.  Remember to give thanks for all the blessings in your life, and consider what acts of kindness you can share with others over the holiday break.

Happy Veteran's Day

Many of our students and faculty are participating in 11Alive's Rachel's Challenge assembly today at the Georgia Dome.  The presentation includes honoring our veterans and presenting one of the largest kindess chains to date.

Campus Beautification & Community Clean-Up

Hopewell Students are helping make our campus and our community beautiful!


The Eco-Explorer Club cleaned up the Hopewell Adopt-a-Road last Saturday. It was cold and picking up trash is never easy. Hopewell is very proud of these students for volunteering their time to clean up our community! 

Also, last Friday, parents, students, and Hopewell staff members gathered after school to work on spreading mulch around the building.  Thank you to all of the people who stayed on a Friday in the cold and the rain to help make Hopewell beautiful!

Next Friday is Veteran's Day!  We need your help!

In order to honor veterans in our community, we would like for Hopewell students, parents, and staff to send in pictures of veterans you know with a brief description of the person.  Please send pictures and discriptions to either Mrs. Tongue (tonguem@fultonschools.org) or Ms. Silverman (silverman@fultonschools.org).  They will be shown on Friday before the announcements.  Thanks!
