Your Input Moves Us Closer To Vision 2031
Dear Hopkins Parents and Caregivers:  Last fall, over 250 of you participated in nine strategic focus teams. These focus teams provided us with critical feedback that helped us determine how we would begin to transform our system from Great to World Class. Hopkins has been busy moving forward on many of the teams' recommendations. However, to be even more strategic and community-focused, we need additional input on a few specific, more bold recommendations. Thank you for taking 15 minutes to complete this Vision 2031 Moving From Exploration To Design survey.
