Grizzlies having Lego League success
Justin Eaton and Bodie and Ben Whitnah are on a Hopkins First Lego League team with students from Eisenhower/XingXing Academy. Before Winter Break, they attended a tournament to present their research project and compete with their robot. They did well enough to advance to the Sectional tournament on January 11th. The team also received the Spirit Award and Innovative Design Structure Award. Great work Hopkins!

Winter Recess Reminders
Winter has arrived! Please send your children to school with the appropriate winter wear. Students need to be wearing hats, gloves/mittens (mittens are warmer than gloves), boots, jackets, and snow pants.
Students will have recess outside if the air temperature is 0 degrees Fahrenheit or above, and the wind chill is -10 degrees or above.
Lost & Found
