Hawks Families, We have a bittersweet announcement.
Mrs. Lillian Hernandez, our Hopkins Secretary will be retiring after 31 years serving Judson ISD. Her final day will be Monday, September 28th.
Mrs. Hernandez has been an integral part of our Hopkins experience. Time and again she has shown our families how much she loves our children, her peers, and anyone else who walks in through the Hopkins doors.
While we hate to see her go, we know she will be excited to have more time with her husband, Paul, her children and grandchildren. Retirement also allows her to spend more time with her VFW family and friends on cruises or at the beach!
If you have a memory or any photos you would like to share, please email us at HopkinsHawksPTO@gmail.com. We will be compiling all of those for her in a memory book.
To Lillian: Thank you for your service. Thank you for all you have done for our Hawks. Thank you for your assistance with all things PTO. You will be greatly missed.

Hopkins Elementary would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Amazon for their generous school supply donation. We were honored to welcome an Amazon representative to our campus as they personally delivered much-needed supplies for our students and teachers. Their support helps ensure that our classrooms are equipped with the resources needed for a successful school year. We are grateful for Amazon's commitment to education and their investment in our school community. Thank you for making a positive difference for Hopkins Elementary!
