Our 2nd graders are officially "booked" for the week! 📚✨
Hooper Elementary had a fantastic field trip to the Lake Villa District Library. Our students got an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at how our neighborhood library works—from how books are sorted to where the magic happens behind the front desk.
We are so lucky to have such an amazing resource right in our backyard! A big thank you to the librarians for hosting our curious explorers.

Martin School students proudly shared their gratitude through artwork, decorations, and handwritten letters that beautifully adorned Foss Park Golf Course as Veterans embarked on their May 1st–3rd journey with Lake County Honor Flight #30 to Washington, D.C.

Thank you, Martin Mustangs, for showing such kindness and respect—and thank you to our Veterans for your service!

🌟 A Night of Spark & Shape! 🌟
Tonight was truly electric at Hooper Elementary! Our amazing 3rd and 4th graders opened their classroom doors to show off a year's worth of hard work, curiosity, and incredible growth.
Here’s a look at what our young scholars shared:
The Power of Science: ⚡ Students demonstrated their mastery of electricity, using positive and negative charges to light up bulbs and show us exactly how energy flows!
Geometry in Action: 📐 From polygons to symmetry, our students got creative with shapes, proving that math is beautiful and everywhere around us.
Academic Growth: 📈 More than just projects, tonight was about celebrating how far every student has come since the first day of school.
We are so proud of our Hooper Heroes! A huge thank you to the families and teachers who make this growth possible every single day.
