My name is Amy Hinds and I teach 7th Grade Life Science. A little bit about me...I have been married to my high school sweetheart, Jason for 22 years. I have 2 absolutely wonderful children, Ross and Raegan. Ross is 21 years old and graduated from Stony Point High School in 2019. He attends Oklahoma State University and he studies business finance with a minor in accounting and energy finance. Raegan is 19 years old and graduated from Stony Point High School in 2020. She attends Texas A&M University in College Station and majors in business with a designation in MIS. We have 2 very active fur babies to keep us busy. Penny Lane is a 2.5 year old Tri-Color Australian Shepherd. Our COVID baby, Bella Rae is a 2.5 year old Australian Cattle Dog. Stay tuned for more on Ms. Penny and Ms. Bella!

Our travels took us to Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Virgina, Maryland, and Washington D.C. We had 2 full weeks for a total of over 3500 MILES!
This will be my 7th year at Hopewell Middle School. I have taught a variety of age ranges from preschool to high school physics and chemistry. However, my true love is the life sciences and biology. I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Biology and a Minor in Chemistry from Southwest Texas State University now known as Texas State University. I received my teaching certification through Region 4 Education Service Center and The University of St. Thomas. Last year I had the honor of representing Hopewell as the 2019 Teacher of the Year! I was so excited to represent Hopewell and I am beyond proud to call Hopewell my home! I love teaching science and I look forward to working with all of my students! STING'EM
