Greetings and welcome to the Bright Beginnings Center, early childhood school for the Hopedale Public Schools. Our school community at BBC is made up of wonderful students, highly qualified staff members, and a supportive family group. It is our privilege to accompany our students on the first steps in their educational journeys.

Our school motto at BBC is, "be safe, be kind, be a team player." We teach our students to follow these key expectations in all settings and in all they do. Our staff members weave these components into our daily routines, lessons, and activities. Each new day at school provides an opportunity for students to learn and grow.

The early childhood years are the foundation for who we become as learners, professionals, and human beings. At the Bright Beginnings Center we focus on play based, developmentally appropriate ways to weave the DESE curriculum frameworks into our school days. We use research-based curriculum programs to teach standards and meet benchmarks. Many of our programs are later used at our district elementary school.

As the building principal, I am incredibly proud of the early learning experience we provide to our students in Hopedale. I am a Hopedale resident myself and my three children all attended the Bright Beginnings Center. it is truly a special place that provides warmth and nurturing encouragement for early growth and development.

We welcome you to take a look around our website and please reach out if you have questions or need additional information.

Best regards,

Kristen Poisson, M.Ed.
