H.E.S. HAPPENINGS
Parent/Family Edition
FEBRUARY 2024
Greetings, Hopkins Elementary Families,
February is a month of love, and here at Hopkins Elementary School, we certainly love our students and families! Your partnership with us is invaluable, and we are committed to working together to ensure your child's success.
Interim Reports will be issued on Tuesday, February 6th. These reports will provide you with a snapshot of your child's progress so far this semester, allowing you to celebrate their achievements and address any areas that may need extra attention.
Parent/Teacher Conferences will be held from February 20th to 29th. This is an essential opportunity for you to meet with your child's teacher to discuss their progress and review universal screening reports. These conferences are an excellent way to gain insight into your child's academic and social development and to collaborate with their teacher on strategies for continued success.
We encourage all parents to take advantage of this opportunity to connect with your child's teacher and support your child's educational journey. Your involvement is crucial to your child's academic growth, and we look forward to partnering with you during these conferences.
Thank you for entrusting us with your child's education. We are dedicated to providing a nurturing and supportive learning environment for all our students, and we appreciate your ongoing support.
Wishing you a fabulous February filled with love and learning!
Sincerely,
Audrey White-Garner, M Ed.
Principal
