Overview

Mission

Hopkins Educational Association is a local educator union for members at Hopkins Public Schools. Our purpose is to support and represent approx 575 members (as of 7/31/2025).

What it reported doing in 2024

Hopkins Education Association is a local educator union for the Hopkins School District. We represent and support approximately 550 members (teachers, counselors, social workers, school nurses). We have four members on our team of negotiators who are responsible for negotiating a contract with district administration every two years, advocating for health insurance, salary, working conditions, benefits, and wellness of our members. Our Governing Board, who meets once each month, consists of building representatives from all school sites who are liaisons between our union leadership and members.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
