Hopkins Academy is Hadley's public middle/high school (grades 7-12) on Russell Street. Its athletic fields, expanded under a 2019 Phase II project to add a baseball diamond, softball diamond, and multi-use soccer/field hockey field, are used for school athletics but function as de facto public fields when school teams aren't using them, per local reporting at the time of construction.
