Principal

Dear Hudsonville, 

I want to warmly welcome you to the 2021-2022 school year.  As your principal, it is my sincere pleasure to work with our dedicated staff and community.  Here at Hudson Elementary, we will continue our tradition of providing a high quality education to our students.  I am truly honored to lead the Hudsonville community. We have accomplished so much as a school community, and we will continue to do so. 

This is my twenty first year in education. Prior to becoming a principal, I had many educational roles including an elementary classroom teacher, a curriculum specialist, and a dean of instruction in Brownsville ISD.  Even with these amazing experiences, I will always be a teacher at heart.  My educational background includes a Bachelor of Arts in Education, Master's in Educational Administration, and an Educational Doctorate in Curriculum and Instruction, all from the University of Texas at Brownsville. By pursuing lifelong learning, I want to give back to the Brownsville Community.  

This year, Hudson faculty and staff are committed to providing exceptional educational experiences for our students. Our goal is to provide a nurturing environment that meets the needs of each student.  We want our students to LOVE learning and LOVE coming to school.  With your support, we can instill life-long values in our students to work hard, exceed expectations, and accomplish their goals. 

I encourage you to share ideas, concerns, or questions. 

Yours in Education, 

Dr. Melinda Lopez
Principal
