Students in Grades K-2 at Hope have been loving the after-school coding club!
We are excited to share that Conor, a kindergarten student from Hope, had the lucky Feinstein Golden Ticket number pulled recently! As a winner of the Golden Ticket, Conor has won a $5,000 grant for Hope Elementary and has chosen to donate a $500 grant to "A Shedding Chance Reptile Rescue". He chose this organization because "I want to be a lizard vet when I grow up. I need to help those sick lizards.” Congratulations, Conor!
In order to kick off RICAS testing, teachers and students in Grades K-2 at Hope made banners and lined the hallways to cheer on students in Grades 3-5 who were about to take RICAS testing. We are so proud of all of their hard work, and everyone wanted to show their support through this special celebration!
Hope students have done an incredible job earning Husky Bucks for being respectful, responsible, and ready to learn this month! Students have had the opportunity to cash in their Husky Bucks at their school store (Thank you to our parent volunteers. The store couldn't run without you!). They also had the opportunity to save up and buy a special admission ticket to an event with Xen's Critters. Students and staff alike loved snuggling and reading to the animals!

Attention Scituate families! We are conducting a survey to find out from our families how you perceive the schools that your children attend.
In some ways, this overlaps with the Survey Works questionnaire, but it goes into more detail because, as a school department, we want to know from you what we're doing well and what we could do better!
This survey is anonymous and specifically designed for parents and guardians with students in our schools. The survey will be open for approximately two weeks and will close on Monday, April 21, 2025.
We hope you can take the time to give us this important feedback!

Students were also lucky to learn more information to help us compost and recycle through a presentation from the RIRRC.
