DISCOVER THE NEW DIRECTION OF HOPE MEET THE ADMINISTRATION Principal—Mr. E. Worley As a proud product of the Northwest region of the city, I’m extremely excited about my new role as Principal of HOPE Charter School. Being a graduate of Robert Fulton Elementary, Ada Lewis Middle School, and Central High School, my roots run deep in the Northwest area of the city.

HOPE CHARTER SCHOOL

Director of School Culture—Mr. C. King Returning to HOPE Charter School during the 2007-2008 school year was like coming back home. After spending several years at HOPE in the past as a teacher and administrator, destiny brought me back as the Director of School Culture. Director of Special Education—Mrs. S. Ellison It has been an honor to have had the privilege of serving students with special needs for over twenty-five years. As the parent of a child with a disability, I know that with the proper supports, modifications and accommodations, every student can succeed. Director of Curriculum & Instruction—Mrs. C. Russo I came to HOPE as a teacher last year, and was invited to serve as the Director of Curriculum. The administration has redesigned the curriculum, purchased new materials and textbooks, and are pleased at the installation of our new computer labs. I truly believe that the administration and staff at HOPE fully believe in our favorite saying… “ To dream is to be filled with HOPE. I know this because I see the faces of HOPE daily.”
