!!!!NEW OPPORTUNITY TO GIVE BACK TO YOUR COMMUNITY!!!! This past year has been challenging for all of us due to the pandemic and the hardships it has caused for our community. For Hopkins Community Education, programming came to a halt, and we were mandated to provide Tier One workers childcare at no cost to our families. We were honored to be there for our community in a time of critical need. As we recover, we recognize that Hopkins Public Schools families are also struggling. Families are experiencing job loss and struggling to make ends meet. To support Hopkins families we have set up a process for Hopkins Schools families to help each other.
