Hello Hamilton Families,
What an amazing start to the school year! Our students have already shown us that it is going to be a great year! I am seeing great STAR behavior with students showing that they know the expectations at school, are enjoying building relationships, making new friends and ready for a great year of learning. Thank you all for the work you have done at home to get your child ready for a wonderful year!

We have had a great first 6 weeks of school! Our students are settled into the class and school routines, made new friends and are working hard on their academics! We recently completed our first round of assessments and are pleased at the growth we are seeing in reading! We have started a new math curriculum and staff are reporting good results from this new resource.
To continue to help your child grow to their full potential, remind them to read 20 minutes each night, turn screens off an hour before bed and get to sleep early enough to get 8-9 hours of sleep. Having regular routines for after school, bed time and getting ready for school can have a very positive impact on how well your child does at school each day. Thank you for your home support and being our partner in your child's education!

Welcome back!! We are very excited to see all of our students back on Tuesday. I hope your summer was wonderful! I had a great summer spending time with my grandson! It was great being a full time grandma this summer! The Hamilton Staff has already been hard at work getting the building cleaned and ready. The teachers have set up warm and inviting rooms to welcome our students for a great year of learning and growing.
On the first day of school only, parents may walk students into class. After the first day it is all hugs and high fives outside. All students are expected to enter and exit their grade level doors unless an arrangement is made with me ahead of time.
Please make sure your child's teacher is aware of how your child will get home on the first day. Telling your child to tell the teacher is not a reliable method. Please send a Dojo or note to the teacher.
Well here we are!! We made another great year at Hamilton Elementary! I am very proud of all the growth our students have shown, the hard work the students and staff have put in and the amazing memories from this year. Thank you to all the parents and families for all your donations of time, money and supplies, we truly could not function without your support! I wish all of you a wonderful summer and look forward to seeing all our Y5-4th grade students in the fall. To our 5th grade students and families....once a Hamilton Star....ALWAYS a Hamilton star and I hope you come back to visit!!
I hope you all enjoyed the long weekend and took a moment to recognize the reason for the long weekend. Memorial Day is not a day of celebration but a day of remembrance for those who lost their lives in the line of duty. Thank you to all who serve and the families who support them.
We have just 12 days left to make this year a great success! Students and teachers are working hard to get all the learning in they can to help our students be ready for next year. While we do have a number of fun end of the year activities planned, rest assured that there is still a great deal of learning taking place. We know that changes to the routing make things difficult for students so teacher do their best to keep things as routine as possible while at the same time working in some year end fun!
