Hopewell Area SD: Remote Instruction on Thursday, May 1, 2025

Due to ongoing storm restoration efforts in the community and at district schools, the Hopewell Area School District will operate all schools under a Flexible Instruction Day (FID) model with students learning remotely from home on Thursday, May 1, 2025. There will be no district transportation provided, and after-school and evening activities will take place as scheduled.

The district truly understands that some students may have varying needs associated with power outages or Internet loss, so please communicate needs with teachers and principals. They will be willing to assist as needed. With an in-service day and prom happening on Friday (May 2), students will next return to school on Monday, May 5. So, the extra day in remote learning will yield multiple days of recovery efforts to, hopefully, return all students to regular in-person schooling on Monday, May 5.

Food Pyramid Information

From the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the "MyPyramid for Kids" slogan for children is “Eat Right. Exercise. Have Fun”.  The key messages of "MyPyramid for Kids" are:

  • Be physically active every day – The child climbing the steps reminds children that physical activity should be done every day.

  • Choose healthier foods from each group – Every food group has foods that you should eat more often than others.

  • Eat more of some food groups than others – The different size stripes suggest how much food you should choose from each group.

  • Eat foods from every food group every day – The different colors of the pyramid represent the five different food groups plus oils.

  • Make the right choices for you – MyPyramid.gov gives everyone in the family personal ideas on how to eat better and exercise more.

  • Take it one step at a time – Start with one new, good thing a day, and continue to add another new one every day.
