Help us plan our play spaces

Hopkins Public Schools wants to provide play spaces that work best for our community. Many of our play spaces will be reimagined in the coming years as part of our referendum work. Your input will help us tailor playground plans at the elementary level and challenge course plans at the secondary level. Learn more about this work on our referendum page.

This summer, take part in our playground focus group. Visit any of the playgrounds listed below, test the equipment, see what elements you like and tell us what you think.
