As graduation approaches, we’re celebrating scholars of the Class of 2026 and the journeys that have shaped their futures.
For Ezra Wolfe, a senior at Hopkins High School, that journey has been driven by a passion for business, creativity, and leadership. Through business classes with Mr. Theirl and involvement in DECA, Ezra found an environment that helped turn interest into action.
That passion led him to start his own business, where he transforms vintage bedsheets into high-quality, nostalgic blankets. His work has been featured at holiday markets and in a Saint Paul vintage store, giving him real-world entrepreneurial experience while still in high school.
Through Hopkins’ ProPEL program, Ezra gained hands-on experience in a professional setting, including an internship at a social media marketing agency. These opportunities helped him build skills that connect directly to his future goals.
Beyond the classroom, Ezra has been a dedicated leader and involved student, serving as student council president, participating in theater and wrestling, and helping create memorable experiences for the school community.
This fall, Ezra will attend Babson College in Massachusetts to study entrepreneurship or marketing, continuing to build on the skills and passions he developed at Hopkins. Help us congratulate Ezra and wish him the best as he begins his new chapter!
