History

Hopkinton High School serves students in grades 9 - 12 and Hopkinton Middle School serves students in grades 7 - 8 from the villages of Contoocook, Hopkinton, and West Hopkinton, New Hampshire (USA).

Our three villages have a long history of support for public education, including the first town schoolhouse (1776), the Contoocook Academy (1856) , and the original Hopkinton High School (1903) . The present high school was built in 1953, enlarged in 1961 and 1969, and partially renovated in 1984. A substantial addition and remodeling project was completed in the Fall of 1998.

Hopkinton Middle School was created in September of 1989. It is a research-based operation designed to bring age-appropriate programs and practices to bear on the education of early adolescents. Our middle school serves grades 7 and 8, and is housed in the same building as the high school.

The original seal of Hopkinton High School was designed by Richard Potter and Roger Plummer, and our school mascot is the hawk.
