A Message from Our Superintendent

Welcome to Hope Elementary School District! My name is Melanie Matta, and I have the privilege of serving as the superintendent and principal to an amazing group of students, parents, and staff. Together, we are building a culture of college- and career-ready learners who will no doubt be the doctors and nurses we seek medical treatment from, the police men and women that protect us in our cities, the builders of our homes and work spaces, the engineers of new agricultural equipment, and more! Their potential is limitless!
