Calarco Library is where Hopkins students and faculty come for quiet study, research, and leisure reading. We support Hopkins' mission to develop the habits of mind of scholars as the foundation for a lifelong love of learning by teaching students how to be effective, ethical users of information. We do this by collaborating with classroom teachers to identify opportunities to teach information literacy skills within the context of actual assignments, and by providing access to resources that support the Hopkins curriculum. The library also offers a rich collection of contemporary fiction and poetry for recreational reading. We're open 7:30am to 5:50pm each school day.
Jean Paton Lovell was a mathematics teacher who had students with great academic potential but without the finances to further their education. That first year, Jean raised $400 from friends, matched it with $400 of her own money and awarded eight $100 scholarships. Today, the all-volunteer Board of Directors, several of whom were themselves recipients of NHSF scholarships, continue with Mrs. Lovell's vision. "A good education is important because it contributes to world peace. Properly educated persons apply their knowledge, insight, understanding, and fine ideals to meet more adequately their family needs and beyond that, to develop the justice which alone can earn for us 'Peace on earth, good will to men.' "
