    The Power of Yes!

    Have you ever asked for something big—really big? $1 million big? What if the people you asked dared to say yes, even if they were not sure it was possible? And what if it happened? That’s the power of yes, and that’s what we will be talking about in Episode Two of "Inside Hopkins." Dr. Rhoda Mhiripiri-Reed highlights an extraordinary student-led initiative from Glen Lake Elementary that started with a simple idea and a jar of change. The students aimed to build an accessible playground to ensure kids of all abilities could play together. With the support of their teacher, Betsy Julien, and Glen Lake Elementary Principal Jeff Radel, these young changemakers rallied the community, reaching out to local businesses and securing partnerships that led to national recognition. Their determination and creativity resulted in an impressive $860,000 raised, transforming their dream into a reality.The episode features two inspiring students, John Buettner and Mimi Priere, who were part of the fundraising efforts. They share their personal experiences, the challenges they faced, and how their idea turned into a movement that captured the nation’s attention.

    Dr. M-R’s Youngest Bosses

    Hopkins Schools was one of the first districts to have student board reps on its school board—and it’s a tradition we continue today. The Hopkins School Board includes three (soon to be four) Hopkins High School students and one VirtualEDU student. Our guests—Mia Osman, Praise Akinyele, and Manuel Wahyu—are all returning school board reps. They talk about what it is like to be part of the governing board, the biggest issues facing young people today, and how they feel about a potential cell phone policy at the high school.

    Thank you, Chef!

    What’s for lunch? It’s a common question, but the answer really matters. And in Hopkins, what is for lunch (and breakfast) is delicious.

    There Are No Weeds in This Garden

    You are bigger than your biggest mistake. How does it make you feel to hear that? It might give you the feeling that you can start over or try again. It might cause you to reflect or feel relieved. Restorative practices in our schools help our students understand each other and where they are coming from. While restorative practices can be used as a strategy for conflict resolution, they’re also used for community building and developing trust. Our guests explain why restorative practices are important and result in more learning happening in the classroom. We also explore how restorative practices can be used as a response to a new law that requires schools to use non-exclusionary practices PreK-3.  Guests: Natalie Sawatzky - Principal, Meadowbrook Elementary Maria Bearre-Boynne - Restorative culture coordinator Suzanne Pakenham - Student success advocate, Meadowbrook Elementary Resources: TED Talk: Three Practices for Wisdom and Wholeness TED Talk: The Single Most Important Parenting Strategy (Restoring Relationships)  Additional Restorative Culture Trainings from MDE Note to Educators: Hope Required When Growing Roses in Concrete 5 Ways to Implement Restorative Practices in the Classroom
