Celebrating Student Success

Recently I had the opportunity to attend Hopkins Elementary's Success Night. This uplifting program began with a tribute to our veterans by the third-grade students, which was one of many school programs honoring our country’s heroes. Then, I was honored to be able to speak to the students about never taking their education for granted. I encouraged them to continue to excel in their studies, and congratulated them on their many outstanding achievements. I was very pleased to watch as the students were awarded for making honor roll, achieving goals on quarterly tests and outstanding attendance.

I am very proud of Hopkins Elementary, and I thank them for allowing me to spend an evening with them celebrating their successes. This is just one example of the student success occurring at all of our schools. Chesterfield schools consistently have high-achieving students who excel every day in their studies and personal commitments.
