The original Hope School opened in 1891. It was a one room school house on Hope Ave.
         
        
        
When the              present              campus opened in 1927 the 
bell was moved from the top of the              original structure to 
this campus. The 2nd grade classes us it              during their Old 
Hope School Days simulation. During this week it is              rung 
each morning to begin classes.
 
        
        
Declining enrollment forced the school to close in the late 1970’s, but 
it          reopened in the 1997-98 school year.  Hope School has a 
proud              history in the community.
