Serving Children and Families Since 1939

 

 

HOPKINS HOUSE
At Hopkins House we know the key to long-term educational success is making sure kids get the best start possible.  We also know that a strong family foundation is essential.  To ensure this we've designed an innovative curriculum, assembled a team of amazing teachers and created a nurturing environment where it all comes together.  And at the core of our philosophy, we believe every child - regardless of their family's income level - deserves an equal chance to this education.

 

Through high-quality preschools, financial literacy, homeownership, parent involvement, reading and literacy, and summer enrichment programs, Hopkins House offers to children and families the skills they will need for a life time of learning.

 

OUR HISTORY
Hopkins House was founded in 1939 by a group of concerned citizens brought together by the sudden loss of federal funding for a favorite Alexandria nursery. The group, composed mostly of public school teachers, met on August 7, 1939 and adopted a constitution and bylaws that formed Hopkins House. They named the institution in memory of Dr. J. Milton Hopkins (1872-1927), a physician who tended to the needy in Alexandria for more than 30 years (Pictured to the left)More History...

 

 

 

OUR MISSION
The mission of Hopkins House is to provide quality educational programs and opportunities to children, youth, and their families, regardless of income, to help them achieve, in measurably effective ways, their full intellectual, economic, and social potential.
