Welcome to the Hopkinton High School and Hopkinton Middle School web site. The town has almost 5000 residents, and lies on the Contoocook River just west of Concord. Our proximity to major eastern cities affords many cultural opportunities, and the river, forests, and farmlands provide rich opportunity for field study. The high school is organized by academic departments from which students may select courses according to their needs and interests.
All classes are open to all students, provided that applicable prerequisites are completed.
Hopkinton Middle School, a school within a school, serves students in grades 7 and 8. It is organized around grade-level teaching teams that work with heterogeneous class groups. The curriculum is prescribed, and students complete full-year courses in English, mathematics, social studies, science, and foreign languages, plus shorter courses in the unified arts. A home-based advisory program helps to foster communication between home and school, and to promote social and emotional growth. Our middle school is perhaps best known for its Immigrant program, a nationally recognized multidisciplinary unit that combines history and sociology with computer applications, mathematics, writing, research, and what can only be called high theatre.
