What's a PRO Center?

A PRO Center is a Parent Resource & Opportunity Center that is housed in the 
back part of the front office area outside of the counseling offices and 
registrar's office.  It is a room designed for those who parent our Hopewell 
students.  A part-time staff person is there throughout the week, but you 
are welcome to stop by any time.  Make it a place to stay a while and read a 
magazine, drink a cup of coffee, socialize with others who have middle-
schoolers...attend a craft class or computer class...read a book in our 
library...volunteer to do some work for a teacher such as stapling items, 
running a scantron....

Have a concern or problem?  Let us help!  Email Bonne Sandars at 
bonneproofs@sbcglobal.net (for the summer) or call her at 255.4288 (for the 
summer).  Contact information will be changed as soon as our new phone is 
hooked up!
