Overview of District

The Hopewell Area School District is located in the southern portion of Beaver County where it borders Allegheny County and lies approximately twenty miles northwest of Pittsburgh.  It consists of three townships:  Hopewell, Independence and Raccoon.

The District has an enrollment of approximately 2100 students.  The students are divided into three grade configurations:  K-4, 5-8 and 9-12.  The K-4 population attend neighborhood schools throughout the District.  This organization was maintained to reflect the local preference for neighborhood schools.  These buildings act as feeders to the centrally located junior high school where grades 5-8 are housed.  Finally, the senior high is found approximately one fourth mile from the junior high and accommodates grades 9-12.

We are extremely proud of our school district and community.  Welcome to Viking country where we share our Hopewell students', district's, and community's Purpose, Passion, and Pride.
