This is our 2nd year at Hopewell. My son has had a great experience. He is being challenged academically. There are many opportunities for students to be involved. The Principal truly cares about all students.

The administration has no control and many of the students are out of control. Fights occur every day, zero tolerance means, If you fight you are suspended..than you get to come back and do it again.
