    Hopewell is comprised of all of the fifth and sixth grade students in the
    district. Hopewell has a total of 42 teachers and 603 students, as well as additional
    support, cafeteria, and janitorial staff. The building is relatively new. It was
    formerly Penns Grove Middle School (which was formerly the Oxford Area High
    School until the high school moved into a new facility) until three years ago when
    renovation was completed. Hopewell Elementary School is named after the original
    Hopewell School which was the first school in the Oxford Area School District. Each
    grade is divided into dyad or triad sections whereby two homeroom teachers are
    responsible for teaching the combined 50-60 students from the two homerooms. One
    teacher is responsible for teaching the mathematics and science curriculums, while
    the other is accountable for teaching the language arts and social studies
    curriculum. This basic setup in known as a dyad. A triad consists of the teachers
    from the dyad setup as well as a learning support teacher. Triad setups are fullinclusion settings where the learning support teacher follows the learning support
    students throughout the school day.
    For the average student at Hopewell, each day is filled by a 30-minute
    homeroom period, an 80 minute math or language arts period, a 40-minute science
    or social studies period, a 40-minute R.T.I.I. period, a 60-minute special period, a

    30-minute lunch period, a 10-minute recess period, another 80-minute math or


    language arts period and another 40-minute science or social studies period. For
    the special periods, students have a mandatory schedule throughout the year where
    they will attend classes in the areas of computer literacy, art, music, health,
    physical education, and library/media studies. Fortunately, even despite talks of
    elimination, Hopewell has kept each of its special area classes as has the rest of the
    district.
    The population of Oxford has a unique effect on the classroom dynamics of
    Hopewell. If you were to look into the typical classroom at Hopewell, the population
    demographics of the Oxford Borough is reflective of the student make-up of each
    classroom. Classrooms are made primarily of white students, with a handful of
    Hispanic students, and a few African-American students. The Hispanic population
    in the borough is growing considerably as is the population of ESL students within
    each school.
