These students consistently demonstrate confidence, courage, and a willingness to lead by example. Whether sharing ideas, encouraging classmates, or stepping up to make a positive difference, they inspire those around them to be their best selves. #leaderinme #Mustangsmakeithappen


We are so proud of their efforts and the joy they bring to our school each day—keep up the amazing work!

We also want to send a big thank you to Ms. Lena, Ms. Driscoll, Ms. Greig, Ms. Heifner, and Ms. Lind for all their help in making the show a success. It truly takes a village! So proud of these happy, healthy bodies and big voices! 🌟👏













LEARN: Palombi's 7th and 8th-grade choir students had an incredible experience collaborating with the talented Lakes Community High School choir. They had the opportunity to sing some of their spring concert music together, giving our students a glimpse into what choir can look like at the next level!
After singing, students spent time connecting, playing games, and building community with the high school choir members. It was the perfect mix of music and fun!
We are so proud of how our students represented Palombi with their energy, enthusiasm, and positive attitudes. Thank you to Lakes for hosting such a wonderful event! #elevateLV41 #collaboration





We had so many great moments from Hooper Family Night that we just had to share a few more! Swipe to see our Hooper families in action—from game strategies to hands-on learning, the energy was un-be-leaf-able.
A second round of applause for our Interventionist and the Lake Villa Library for making these smiles possible.










We had an incredible turnout for our Family Night this week! It was a "spec-kernel-ar" evening filled with games, activities, and a whole lot of learning. Seeing our families come together to play and grow is what makes our school community so special.
A massive Thank You to:
Our Amazing Interventionist for planning and coordinating such a smooth event!
Lake Villa Library for being a fantastic community partner and joining in the fun.
We’re already looking forward to the next one!











To celebrate all the hard work our 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders gave for state testing, the Hooper PTO hosted a well-deserved pizza party! We are so proud of our students for giving their absolute best on the big test.
A massive THANK YOU to our amazing PTO for sponsoring the food and to the wonderful parent volunteers who stepped up to serve our scholars. We couldn’t have done it without our Hooper family!












The curtains were about to close on an incredible Talent Show today, but our staff had one last surprise up their sleeves!
Just when the students thought the show was over, the staff took over the stage with a surprise performance of their own. From the awesome dance moves to the absolute stage presence, they definitely kept the energy at an all-time high!
We are so lucky to have a team that not only works hard every day but also knows how to bring the house down and share a laugh with our students. The look on the kids' faces was truly the highlight of the day! #SERVE #itsathompsontigerthing



Thanks to the kindness of our students and families, we collected an amazing 657 pairs of socks and 49 pajamas to support Antioch Traveling Closet. These donations will help provide comfort and warmth to children and families in need.
We are so proud of the compassion and teamwork demonstrated by our students—small acts truly make a big difference
