Supporting Scordino for School Committee
My son John and his wife Brenda, their two school age girls and I have called Hopkinton home for over a dozen years. We are endorsing Ellen Scordino for School Committee for many reasons, but one primary reason is her promise to advocate for all taxpayers, not just simply the school centric.

The Sung Tradition of Excellence
This is the second article in a series from AP Language teacher Michael Franchock as he reconnects with past students. Enjoy!
The Hopkinton community has been fortunate to have many outstanding siblings who have excelled in our school system, including many families who have boasted multiple valedictorians. The Sprachmanns, the Baldigas and, most recently, the Sungs all have had two children who were valedictorians of their class, and for the second installment of our series on outstanding students, I chose to focus on the most recent of these siblings, the Sungs.
Opinion: Ritterbusch for School Committee
I am voting for Amy Ritterbusch for School Committee not just because of her initiative and tireless efforts to improve Hopkinton’s schools, but also for her ability to identify and implement solutions.
Amy’s active volunteerism through her nine years as a Hopkinton resident, which includes attending school committee meetings and serving as an HPTA volunteer at several schools, gives her a clear understanding of how our school system works.
