HOPE, AR - Hope Public Schools is dedicated to the long-term sustainability of effective leadership.

Beginning in the 2022-2023 school year, HPS implemented a two-year Aspiring Leaders Fellowship Program dedicated to "growing our own" leaders in Hope Public Schools. The fellowship is an internal leadership pipeline that fulfills our schools' need for dynamic instructional leaders. Ultimately, this will prepare us for success in future staffing and academic expectations within our schools.

Five educators have been selected to participate in Cohort 1 of the fellowship.
CPS - Laura Gray & Carmen Galvan; YMS - Sandra Rhone; HHS - Sheila Hopson; HAPS - Marilyn Marks.

The group held its first meeting on Thursday, September 15, 2022.
