Welcome Dr. Karen Hopson, Associate Superintendent of Catholic Schools

9/22/2022

Dr. Hopson started her career in education 31 years ago with the desire to help people. Dr. Hopson was drawn to Catholic Education when her daughter was going to start Kindergarten. She wanted to make sure her daughter was surrounded by people who had similar values and morals, so she decided to make the switch to Catholic Education for both her and her daughter.

A day in the life of an Associate Superintendent is different each day. One day Dr. Hopson is visiting schools, another she is meeting with principals and on another, she is working in the office on the next project. Dr. Hopson's goal this year is to be a support to all the principals and schools!

When Dr. Hopson is not at work you will find her crafting for others or watching a Chiefs game. Dr. Hopson is passionate about Catholic Education, as she believes everyone should have a Catholic Education to help them to be the best human, he/she can be! Dr. Hopson is also a strong supporter of Children’s Mercy Hospital where her daughter received excellent care when she was younger.

One day, Dr. Hopson would love to go to Rome, Italy, and visit the Vatican. When asked who she would like to meet in history, Dr. Hopson said Mother Theresa. I would like the chance to talk with her and learn from her. That would be a blessing!

I am not sure whom I should contact!
I am a retired reading specialist with a large collection of children's books. All of them are in excellent condition with the exception that my name is in them covered over with a sticker or white strip. I would like to donate this collection to a school in need of elementary stories. Most of the books are from Scholastic. Please let me know if you are interested.
It took me a few years to decide to donate these books but I want children to love reading and the world it opens up. They are very important to me and I just want to give them to a worthy cause! Thank you for your help.
