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.

EXCUSES

Medical Excuses:Students with medical restrictions must still dress for class and will be required to perform an alternate safe activity (with physician permission). A can do list will be sent to the doctors office. The doctor can check what the student can do. An example would be having a student with a broken arm ride a stationary bike with their legs. If a student misses three or more classes or needs adaptations for a prolonged period a doctor’s excuse is required.

*Students who are excused from all types of physical activity will be required to complete a written assignment during class.

Athletic Excuses:Athletics is not a substitute for a quality physical education course; therefore, athletes will not be excused from actively participating in physical education lessons. Teacher discretion will be used in assigning the amount of activity to an athlete on the day of a competition.
