Hello Hamilton Families!
I hope you have now adjusted to Daylight saving time and are ready to welcome spring this week. Hopefully we can welcome warmer weather too! As we enter into the last third of the school year we need to make a strong finish to the year. As we approach the spring break this week please keep in mind we still have much work to do. We still need you to be our partner in your child's education. We know the lighter it is near bedtime makes it difficult to get kids to bed and stay on schedule, however staying on schedule really benefits your child. Turning screens off and reading a book can be a great way to calm down and get ready for a full night of sleep.

Hello Hamilton Families,
We are well underway with our MSTEP testing and hope to wrap that up in the next week, then we move on to NWEA testing. Please continue to make sure your students are at school on time for the full day so they are not missing important testing as well as valuable instruction that is needed to be ready for next year. I was disappointed to see such a major drop in our perfect attendance in March. In February we had 112 students with perfect attendance and in March we fell to just 87 students out of 474.

What a beautiful Sunday to kick off some great weather this week! With this nice weather it is the perfect time to start allowing your child to walk or ride their bike to school. We do have a bike rack where your child can lock their bike up.
This week begins our state testing window. We have some strict guidelines to follow during this time so I ask that you please have your child to school on time for the whole day so they do not have to make up any testing. Also, NO cell phones or smart watches during testing. Please be aware that students may not wear Apple watches/smart watch nor have their phones during our MSTEP state testing sessions. Our students in 3rd-5th grade will begin taking the M-STEP test this week and are prohibited by our state testing guide lines from having phones and smart watches in the testing session. Students in elementary don't need phones at school at anytime but may not have them in their pocket or on their wrist during testing. We have phones in every room of the school so students have access to a phone in case of emergency and don't ever need their phone during the school day. Thank you in advance for your support!

Happy Easter!! I hope everyone enjoyed the day with family and friends. I love spring and the reminder new beginnings and growth. When I think back to the beginning of the year and the amount of growth we have seen this year I am so proud of our students, families and staff. It is the result of the hard work and team effort by all.
Monday 4/1 report cards will be viewable in parent connect. Take time to review this with you child and discuss where they began the year and how much they have learned and how far they have come. If you would like to schedule a conference with your child's teacher to discuss your child's progress please reach out to the teacher to schedule that time.
