We wish everyone a wonderful first day back and a successful 2026-2027 school year!

We hope all our incoming Kindergarten families have received the email from Mrs Toomey regarding Orientation, to take place next Friday, August 21st at 10am!
We're all hoping it will be able to happen at the school, but with roof repairs, you'll need to stay tuned just in case it needs to be moved.
Kindergarten Orientation is a great time to meet your student's teacher and learn about their classroom, and what to expect for the beginning of the school year. Members of the Hope PTA Board will also be there to hand out info about our organization, introduce ourselves, and give each kiddo a special gift! We look forward to seeing you next week!

It's almost time to get the kids back to school! Eek! And we see you out on the socials wondering what classroom supplies your student(s) might need for the new school year - so click here: https://tr.ee/6A3xk-xdk3 for the full lists of recommendations for each grade, K-5!
We hope this helps all the new, incoming Hope families, and all our current, returning families, so your kiddos can start their new school year on the right foot!
(If you have financial hardship or concerns, you can reach out confidentially to Mrs Toomey via email [email protected])

ONE MORE TIME (WITH A MORE SHAREABLE POST FORMAT)

🚨 IMPORTANT EVENT UPDATE 🚨

We never wanted to make this announcement again, but after closely monitoring the weather and reviewing the latest forecasts for our area, we have made the difficult decision to cancel Saturday's Hope Jackson Family Fun Day & Fireworks event.

While we always hope for the best, the current forecast does not provide the safe conditions needed to host an event of this size. The safety of our volunteers, vendors, and the thousands of community members who attend our event will always be our top priority.

We are excited to announce that we are rescheduling the event to Sunday, September 6th and turning it into an End of Summer Bash! We hope you'll join us as we celebrate the close of summer with a fun evening for the entire community.

📅 New Date: Sunday, September 6th
📍 117 Main Street, Hope, RI
🕔 Event begins at 5:00 PM

📢 Please help us spread the word by sharing this post so we can reach as many people as possible and avoid confusion.

🎆 We still need your help! Although the date has changed again, our need to fund this year's fireworks display has not. We are still well short of our fundraising goal, and every donation—large or small—helps make this community tradition possible.

If you've been meaning to donate but haven't had the chance yet, now is a great time. Your support helps us continue bringing this event to the community year after year.

We sincerely appreciate everyone's understanding, patience, and continued support. We know this is disappointing, but we look forward to seeing everyone on Sunday, September 6th, for an incredible End of Summer Bash!

Please share this post to help us spread the word.

Happy 4th to our families, friends, and community! Stay safe and have fun celebrating our great country today!

YOUNG AUTHOR'S CELEBRATION

Hope students in Grades K-5 had the opportunity to write and illustrate their very own books. The students had the opportunity to show off their hard work to families and classmates at our Young Author's Celebration. Thank you to our PTA for supporting such an inspiring event!

RESCHEDULED to JULY 18TH!! More details in the Hope & Jackson Fire Company Post shared here.

🚨 IMPORTANT EVENT UPDATE 🚨

Due to the record-breaking heat expected on July 3rd, we have made the difficult decision to postpone our Hope Jackson Family Fun Day & Fireworks to Saturday, July 18th.

This decision was not made lightly. The safety of our volunteers, vendors, and the thousands of community members who attend our event is our top priority. With the extreme temperatures forecasted, we believe postponing the event is the safest choice for everyone.

📅 New Date: Saturday, July 18th
