The bright spot of our first day with students in 2026 has been seeing the smiles on our students faces, their hugs and high fives, and getting back into our routines. Thank you for sharing your child with us at Hope Elementary!


For the spring semester (Quarter 3 & 4), we are looking forward to:

  • MAP progress data at the end of January- reading and math progress
  • Parent-Teacher/Family Conferences- our goal is to meet about every student January-March
  • Language Proficiency progress with K-12 Summit and TELPAS
  • Spring Title I Game Night, Sweetheart Family Dance, music programs, Spotlight Celebrations, and more.


As continued growth is a priority for our school, we invite you to share feedback with us about the first semester of this school year. We welcome your opinions and recommendations, and will review the information when planning for our school events. Click here to complete the brief survey by Friday, January 23.


This newsletter includes:

  • Middle of Year Parent Feedback Survey
  • Nurse McGhee's update
  • Resource links to our Grade Level Newsletter website, Hope Elementary website, and Year-At-A-Glance for Events.


Thank you for sharing your child with us and for your connection with our school community!
