Weekly Updates! October 5-16
Hello Hamilton Families,
What a beautiful fall weekend! What a great weekend to be outside and enjoy the Michigan fall. As we move into October we have completed our first set of assessments and are full swing into curriculum. Please make sure you are keeping up with Dojo to make sure you know what is happening in your child's class and how you can support that at home.

Hello Hamilton Families,
It was wonderful to see so many of you at the Fall Festival! The PTA did a great job planning and organizing this family event. Your participation in school events helps to let students know how important school is and strengthen the home-school connection. Thank you for being a part of our Hamilton events!
NEWSLETTER: Mrs. Michels Weekly Updates - September 21, 2026
Happy Labor Day! I hope everyone is okay after that crazy weather on Thursday, thank goodness our students had been dismissed home safely. Luckily we had just practiced our severe weather drill earlier in the day. Our staff practices drill and prepares for weather incidents regularly.
Welcome to our 3rd week of school! We are off to a great start. It has been wonderful seeing all of our returning students and getting to know our new students. Please make sure to check the Class Dojo daily for updates and school to home communication.
I really need your help!! We are having ongoing (and far too frequent) incidents between parents in the parking lot. Please stop engaging in arguments about where people are parked, how long they are taking to move, if they accidentally bump your door. These are all things that can be resolved without making a scene. If everyone does their part and follows the drop off and pick up procedure we will not have any issues.
- Drive slow!
- Be ready to wait, we have a lot of kids to drop off/pick up, it will take a few minutes
- If you get out of your driver set, you must be in an actual parking spot.
- DO NOT let your child out in the middle lane. This is not only very dangerous, it holds up traffic.
- If someone makes a gesture at you PLEASE IGNORE THEM your reaction will not change their behavior and just causes more conflict.
- Your child should enter and exit their assigned door (unless it is pouring rain).
- Please share this with anyone who is picking your child up as we have had a number of relatives pick children up and not follow the procedure.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation and for being a positive role model for all our students.
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!
