What people are saying

by a citizen
Wednesday, July 10, 2013

I am a well-educated Engineer and have had 3 children who graduate from Hopedale. I find the training in education and life to be refreshing and exceptional. Students have focused training, with computer logic as a basis. I currently have 3 grandchildren in the system. When I compare their status to students from other schools, it seems like our students are advanced and better acclimated than those from other schools.

A neighbor's recently child exercised school choice, and went to Nipmuc Regional for a while. But he soon returned as he was bored and felt unchallenged at Nipmuc.

One issue, which may bring down Hopedale's rating, is the diversity of the town. We go from blue collar to very affluent white collar, corporate executives. I personally prefer this diversity for children, grandchildren and myself as it exposes everyone to people from all walks of life. We are all better for it. Close Quote
