We are a proudly inclusive E-12 district serving approximately 7,200 students across the City of Hopkins and surrounding communities. Our district represents a rich mosaic of cultures, backgrounds, identities, and lived experiences; we value and celebrate that diversity in everything we do. As an academically rigorous and human-centered district, we are committed to fostering a welcoming environment where every student and staff member feels seen, heard, and valued.

    • Use a variety of digital tools and platforms to deliver high-quality instruction and support student accessibility.
    • Foster a positive, inclusive, and supportive learning environment that promotes student autonomy and success.
    • Participate in IEP meetings, evaluations, and team planning sessions as needed.
    • Coordinate with related service providers, paraprofessionals, and support staff to effectively implement student supports.
    • Engage in ongoing professional learning to stay informed of best practices in special education, virtual instruction, and project-based learning.
