Orange County School Board
In 2007, Jim Hopkins was first elected to represent

homes adjacent to the
subdivision. In order to keep the residents of District V informed, Jim has
devoted a portion of this website to report on School Board issues.
On May 6, 2023, Mr. Hopkins gave a short verbal report to
the Lake of the Woods' Board of Directors.
