Important Dates


Traveling World Of Reptiles
Hopewell had an assembly with The Traveling World of Reptiles, an up-close, live, and extremely interactive or "hands on" experience about reptiles and amphibians from around the world. The presentation helped to dispel many of the myths surrounding these animals as well as educate the audience as to why they're necessary and beneficial to the environment. Students were able to see, touch, and learn about reptiles from all over the world.

Thankful Trees
Students created thankful trees as fun and festive decorations for the Thanksgiving holiday. They decorated the trees with paper leaves on which they wrote notes about things they are thankful for, or what they appreciate in their lives.



Feed My Starving Children
Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to seeing every child whole in body and spirit. FMSC believes hope starts with food and they strive to provide meals for hungry children across the globe. Hopewell Academy transition students volunteered at FMSC in Aurora. They hand-packed rice, soy, dried vegetables and a nutritionally complete blend of vitamins and minerals into bags, sealed and packed for shipment.
