Thank you for DREAMING BIG with us this school year! I appreciate your connection and continuous support of our students, staff, and school community. Throughout June and July, I will update this "Summer edition" newsletter with information about events and back-to-school planning. We have missed seeing our Huskies every day and hope you have enjoyed the first few weeks of sweet, summer time!

We hope to see you at our July Summer Library!

As always, thank you for sharing your child with us and for your connection with our school community!

Christina Upshaw

Proud Principal

Celebrations!

Our first Summer Library was a success! We made rockets, learned about space, engaged in learning with Nurse McGhee and Lone Star Family Health, and ate delicious snacks! #HopeOurHappyPlace

We Need Your Help!

A huge THANK YOU to the sponsors who has already donated toward our 2026–2027 Hope Elementary staff shirts! We truly appreciate your support.

We have until the end of this month to raise the funds needed, and we’re still a long way from our goal. Our staff proudly wear these shirts throughout the school year, and we’re hoping our amazing community can help make them possible.

Every dollar makes a difference, and no donation is too small. All sponsors will be recognized on our Hope Elementary social media pages as a thank-you for supporting our school.

If you’re able to contribute or know someone who might be interested in sponsoring, please reach out. We would greatly appreciate your help in reaching our goal before the deadline!


Thank you for supporting our staff, students, and school community. Please like, share, and help us spread the word!

All students at Hope Elementary School are eligible to receive a free breakfast at school each day, regardless of household income.

This is a statewide effort to ensure children begin the school day well-nourished and ready to learn. We encourage all families to take advantage of this opportunity to support their child’s health and academic success.

Please note: While breakfast is free for all students, we strongly encourage parents to complete a Free and Reduced-Price Meal Application online. This determines eligibility for free or reduced-price lunch meals. Www.myschoolapps.com

If you have any questions, please contact the Child Nutrition Office at 936-709-8185.
