Hopewell Middle School

The latest review here is downright scary. The student claims to have "got into all AP classes". This person's grammar and spelling is an abomination. He/she should be in remedial English, not AP. If this is the state of education today, then our country is in serious trouble.

Just amazing! Each teacher will go out of their way just to help one student. My three years where amazing, my grades improved and got into all AP (advance placement) classes. Ya you got a couple of trouble makers but very few of them. Most of the kids are pretty good, theirs not a ton of cursing witch i know parents are allways worried about. The PE and music programs are some of the best in the state! for being in its orchestra, we have won state comp every year for the past 3 years. Make sure you open up a travle fun for their are a lot of tripps witch are a little munch but not too bad. We went to Flordia to play against flordia orchestra's and won. Great schools Great teachers Great programs

the teachers are great! Middle school can be difficult years and the Administration seems to do a good job balancing academics and activities.

My daughter is a 6th grader and has had a wonderful experience at HMS. The teachers are very involved in the students activities and really challenge them to succeed in all arenas. The parents and teachers are involved and work well to promote a positive environment. Keep up the good work! I would recommend HMS to anyone. Go Mustangs!

Friendly, warm and helpful office staff. Administration goes above and beyond to make sure the students come first in educational as well as social aspects.

I've been a PTA involved parent at Hopewell for my daughter 6th thru 8th grade. I also had a son in 6th who struggled in LArts and Math. I could not have been more pleased with the staff's support!. They helped come up with solutions so much so that my son not only passed both classes (which was debatable), he made an 81 in math and 75 in LA. He attended Mrs. Pappas' math support class as an elective, and made a complete turn around. At HMS you have staff support, including the principal Mr. Thompson. If your child is not doing well in any area, parents need to step up and ask for help...its there for you. As a volunteer, I have to say that from the media center staff to the cafeteria staff, they are wonderful to work with! Life is good at HMS!

Having moved from Virginia, this was our first year at Hopewell. My daughter was in the 8th grade this past year, and adjusted very easily to her new environmnet. She has made some wonderful friends! All the kids seem to get along at this school. Teachers are supportive, and lots of after school activities/clubs for getting involved. Very strong parental involvement. Very happy with Hopewell!
