Scott Hoppert to lead Raisinville
July 13, 2016 Syndicated from District

Scott Hoppert, who has taught in the Monroe Public Schools for 26 years and who for two years led Monroe Public Schools’ Summer Learning Academy (SLA) as its administrator, is the new principal at Raisinville Elementary School. 

     His appointment was affirmed Tuesday night (July 12) by the Monroe Public Schools Board of Education.  At Raisinville, he will succeed Dr. Mary Ann Cyr who recently resigned to accept a position as an assistant superintendent in a Wayne County public school district.

     Mr. Hoppert began with Monroe Public Schools in September 1990 and for the first 22 years was a social studies teacher at Monroe High School, the old Cantrick Middle School and at Monroe Middle School.  Since November 2012 he has been the school improvement coach at Monroe Middle School, working with classroom teachers, the administration and curricular departments to assess and improve the efficiency and proficiency of education offered at MMS.

     Throughout his years at MMS, the National Junior Honor Society – for which he was an advisor – became one of the most active groups in Monroe Public Schools, sponsoring numerous community-centered events.  Under Mr. Hoppert’s tutelage, the NJHS and MMS annually found new ways to “Light it up Blue” in honor of Autism Awareness, including last year’s text-a-thon where MMS students set a world’s record for the most texts in a five-minute period, at attempt which was carried live on two television stations. 

     As the SLA administrator, he helped to identify students who would benefit from attending “summer school,” developed an inquiry-based curriculum, secured resources, and oversaw instruction to address students’ needs to help them to achieve more academically.

     Mr. Hoppert has a bachelor of education degree from the University of Toledo, a State of Michigan Professional Certificate and completed cognitive coaching seminars.

     At Raisinville, he will head a school and staff which is preparing to become an International Baccalaureate school, the only one in Monroe County.





Success!
