Vermont Business Magazine Last week, Rock Point School students and faculty removed a large portrait of Bishop John Henry Hopkins, a noted figure in the history of the Episcopal Diocese of Vermont. In 1832, Hopkins became the first Episcopal Bishop of Vermont, and his son built the school building in the late 19th Century to honor his father.
