Here is a message from our 7th-Grade Math Long Term Sub, Ms. White. She will be starting on Monday, May 9th.

Hello seventh grade families!

My name is Ms. White, and I am SO excited to have

the opportunity to teach your kids. I am a certified

Michigan educator who graduated from Grand Valley State

University. I have a bachelor's degree with certification in

grades k-8.

I have had a passion for teaching since I was a child

and I cannot imagine myself doing anything else!

As for knowing the area, I am local! I live on a farm in

Allegan County with my family. We have lots of animals--

primarily goats! I am so excited to share fun farm stories

and photos! Who doesn’t like a good goat story?

I cannot wait to teach and learn in seventh grade! Go

Vikings!

Sincerely,

Ms. White

Hi 6th and 7th Grade Parents,

It is that time of year where your students get to select their Exploratory class options. On Monday 5/9/22 your student will receive in email asking them to choose their selection for next year. Please discuss the choices with them. Students may choose Band, Choir, Both Band and Choir or Neither and just do the exploratory courses. Some of the Exploratory classes are Tech Trends, Current Events, Art of Diversity and many others.

1. Band and an exploratory class

2. Choir and an exploratory class

3. Band and choir

4. Two exploratory classes

Families of Hopkins Public Schools:

Beginning with the first day of school for the 2022-23 school year, school meals will no longer be free to all students. Congress did NOT pass the waivers to continue free meals to all students. We will go back to applications to determine free and reduced meal eligibility. Those applications will be available after July 1st. We strongly encourage all families to fill out the applications on-line to ease the process, information will be in your back to school packet.

Thanks and have a great last week of April!
