Coffee Fundraiser

As our 8th graders get ready to wrap up their time at Hopkins West, the PTO is kicking off the fun by raising money for the 8th Grade Celebration Fund—from the Valleyfair adventure to the end‑of‑year celebration.

To keep the excitement (and the parents) energized, we’re hosting a Coffee Fundraiser on Friday, May 15 during the morning drop‑off line. Whether you’re craving coffee, juice, donuts, or muffins, there’s definitely something to jump‑start your morning and boost the celebration fund!

Please order in advance with the attached QR code.

Your support helps make these milestone moments unforgettable.

It'll be a great week at West!

Vote for Ms, Nicholls’ CREW for Conservation

Hopkins West Middle School's Conservation Crew has concentrated on educating students on recycling and composting. Students made two posters for composting and one for recycling so students and staff would not just learn more about recycling/composting, they would also do it themselves at home or in future careers! Crew members also planted some flowers outside for pollinators or other insects, hopefully improving our outside spaces.
