Hopkinton

Hopkinton is located along Highway 38 between Monticello and Delhi. It is approximately 20 miles from Manchester, Dyersville and Anamosa. Hopkinton is also about 40 miles from Dubuque and Cedar Rapids. Hopkinton has been the home of the Delaware County Historical Museum Complex. It is centered around the former Lenox College. The beautiful campus and buildings are listed on the National Register of Historic Places in America. The centerpiece of the campus is the Civil War Monument, dedicated November 17, 1865.

We are fortunate to have our own elementary school, Johnston Elementary, which consists of kindergarten through 6th grade students. Seventh through 12th grade attend high school in Delhi at Maquoketa Valley High. The welfare of the community is overseen by an excellent police, fire, ambulance, medical office, library, parks and recreation (swimming pool, play grounds, ball diamond, and shelters), agricultural businesses, feed stores, alcohol plant, bank, grocery store, L-P gas service, dairy field dept., auto parts store, auto repairs, auto body repair and paint shop, several gas/convience stores, recycling business, bar/restaurants, carpenters, ceramics, beauty shops, and day care facilities. We are also fortunate to have our own local weekly newspaper, the Delaware County Leader.


 

 

 

     

 

We could have easily moved to a larger community but chose to make our home here. The school district was a perfect fit for my husband (as an educator) and we have high expectations of our daughter going to school here.
