Student Handbook

Dear Students and Families,

Welcome to a new and exciting school year at New Hope Elementary! It is with great enthusiasm that I welcome both our returning families and those joining us for the first time. We are thrilled to begin another year filled with learning, growth, and community.

Our theme for the 2025–2026 school year is “Lead with Kindness, Serve with Purpose.” This theme reflects our commitment to building a school culture rooted in compassion, integrity, and a shared responsibility to help others. We believe that through kind leadership and purposeful service, our students will not only succeed academically but also grow into thoughtful, responsible citizens.

This handbook has been created to provide you with important information about our school policies, procedures, and expectations. We kindly ask that all families take the time to read through it carefully. It is essential that students and families understand and support the guidelines outlined within to ensure a safe and successful year for everyone.

If you have any questions or need clarification on anything in this handbook, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Open communication and strong partnerships between home and school are key to student success.

I am truly looking forward to a fantastic year ahead. Let’s work together to make this school year one of the best yet!

With appreciation,
Debra Simons
