Welcome ToHamilton Elementary

We made it through our first full week back to school! As I said last week, the students are doing a great job transitioning back into the school routines and last week they started the NWEA testing. We will use this data as one part of the information we use to make instructional decisions and what supports we will put in place for each student to be successful. Students are also working on showing STAR behavior expectations and focusing on how their behavior choices have an impact on their day. As we enter the 4th week of school teachers are increasing the rigor of the instruction and expectations for student work. Make sure you are checking Class Dojo for daily behavior reports and information about what your child is learning. Thank you for your continued support in helping our students grow and succeed!
