Hello Hamilton Families!
I hope you had a wonderful winter break and enjoyed watching the Olympics! Team USA was great!! As a hockey fan seeing both our men's and women's hockey teams bring home gold was exciting!
As we close out February we are entering the last quarter of the school year! This is the time to lock in and finish strong. We have shown amazing growth with our two new curriculum resources in both reading and math. I am so excited to see how far our students can go with this growth!

I hope you are all staying warm and safe during our arctic winter blast! Please remember that doors do not open until 8:15 regardless of the temperature. Supervising staff do not report until 8:15 so there is no one to supervise the children before that time. Please remember to send students with the winter apparel and label it because we have many children with similar or the same items.
Happy New Year!! I hope your holidays were all that you hoped they would be and you enjoyed quality time with the people you love. I had a wonderful Christmas especially since we celebrated my grandson Dawsons first Christmas. Before break we also had some Christmas fun at Hamilton and I included the pictures below.
Thank you to everyone who came out for parent-teacher conferences! Your involvement is one of the top indicators of your childs succcess in school! If for some reason you were not able to meet with your child's teacher please reach out to reschedule. It is important that you meet with your child's teacher to learn how your child is doing and how we can continue to work as a team to ensure your child's success.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from my family to your family. I wish you a wonderful holiday season and a happy and safe New Year! I know I am very excited to celebrate my grandsons first Christmas! Enjoy the two weeks off and be ready to start back in January for the second half of our year. We have already had such a great year so far. I am always amazed at how hard our students and staff work and how much they grow in a short amout of time. Being a part of the Hamilton community is something I am very proud of!
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday and long weekend! I enjoyed the holiday and long weekend spending time with my family and kicking off the Holiday season. Now I am ready to make the last month of the year great! We have many school activities and lessons this month, keep an eye on the calendar and Dojo so your child is not missing out on any of these school activities. As mom of two and grandma to one ( and grand baby #2 in April) I remember when my boys lived at home and the hustle and bustle of the holidays had me on my toes too! While we want to do so many fun things and get all the holiday events in, do your best to keep schedules and routines as normal as possible. Keep bed time routines and times consistent, spread events out over a few days and allow down time for your whole family. When elementary age children stay on schedule they are better able to control their behavior and emotions, which will make events and activities better for everyone.
Tuesday is Veterans day and I thank all our Veterans, current military and the families who support them. Thank you for your service and sacrifice.
