Hopewell is a four-story school with two gymnasiums. The Central Gym can be split into two, creating three: the North, Central and South gyms.
The school follows the Balanced School Day model; the day is split into three blocks of 100 minutes each, separated by 40 minute nutritional/recess breaks. The elementary students stay in their designated classrooms for the whole block while the intermediate students get two 50 minute periods each block. In between these periods, the intermediate students travel to different classes due to them having multiple teachers. On the second break the intermediate students (7-8) can go off school property for 40 minutes while the elementary students (K-6) are to stay on school property.
It provides education in English, Middle French Immersion, and French Immersion, as well as extra classes in other heritage languages on Saturdays. The school offers the Take action group (originally called Me2We club) and Speaker Series. The school also has three bands, junior (grade 7), intermediate (grade 8), and jazz band.
