HOP (Hour of Power) Time is a highly engaging, student-choice experience where learners participate in themed sessions that build over multiple weeks, similar to clubs rather than one-time activities. Students select from a variety of options, allowing them to explore interests, try new experiences, and collaborate with peers across grade levels. Teachers partner across teams to design creative, interactive sessions that foster relationships and provide meaningful, hands-on learning opportunities. Overall, HOP Time promotes student voice, engagement, and a sense of community within the school.
