Today, students wrote letters to veterans, which will be delivered to the VA Hospital in Great Lakes in preparation for Veterans Day.! Small acts can make a massive difference, and these amazing individuals are leading the way! 💛✨

Stay tuned for some exciting projects coming up soon! 🎨🤝

Hooper Heroes in Action!

Ms. Staver’s 3rd graders took their learning to the next level by stepping out of their seats and into the hallway! Working in cooperative groups, our Heroes moved along the third-grade hall to solve math problems posted on the walls.

After tackling every challenge together, they headed back to the classroom to check their work, double-check for accuracy, and practice true peer collaboration.

Way to show teamwork, active problem-solving, and a growth mindset in action! Keep up the great work, Hooper Heroes!

Leadership in action! 🌟💙

Students in Mrs. Galvez’s class are working hard every day showing what it truly means to be a Hooper Hero!

By earning rewards that support our Hooper community, our 5th graders are making a real impact—from sharing lunch with special Hooper staff members to visiting former teachers like Ms. Staver to lead read-alouds for younger students!

There is nothing quite like seeing our older students return to past classrooms to mentor and inspire the next generation of learners. We are so proud of our 5th graders for their outstanding leadership, kindness, and dedication to our school! 👏✨

5th Grade Takes Flight! 🛸💨

Our Hooper Heroes took on The Hovercraft Project, spending an incredible day building, testing, and actually riding full-sized hovercrafts!

This immersive STEM adventure was all about discovery—learning how individual strengths make a team stronger and proving that with collaboration, they can accomplish hard things. This experience showed our Hooper Heroes the power of teamwork, perseverance, and recognizing their own value. When students know their unique strengths and work together, there’s no limit to what they can build!

We are so proud of our young innovators and can’t wait to see how high they soar!

Our Hooper Hero Kindergartners are busy working through hands-on centers to reinforce their learning in Unit 1. Students are partnering up to practice foundational skills like counting groups up to 10, recognizing small sets up to 4 without counting, and asking "are there enough?" questions.
We love watching our young mathematicians explore, talk, and grow every day!
Great job, Kindergarten! 🌟

Big dreams start with clear steps! 3rd graders have been hard at work taking ownership of their learning by creating their WIGs (Wildly Important Goals)! From mastering multiplication facts to crushing reading stamina targets, these young leaders defined where they are, where they want to be, and the action steps to get there. We can't wait to watch them track their progress on their classroom scoreboards and celebrate every milestone along the way! 📊✨
