Here we are less than two weeks away from Thanksgiving! I truly enjoy this time of year spending more time with family and friends and taking time to think about what I am grateful for. As part of our PBIS ( Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports) we identify a new Spotlight behavior every month to focus on at Hamilton. Our current spotlight behavior is Gratitude. Students are learning what it means to be grateful and show gratitude. You can help teach this at home as well.
Thank you all for coming out to the Halloween Parade! It was great to see so many family members there! We got very lucky with the weather! Thank you to everyone who donated candy and time so our kiddos could have such nice treats.
Thank you everyone who went to Skate Night! It looks like it was a great turn out with some wonderful costumes! Our next event is our Halloween Parade. Families are welcome to come watch as our student's and staff parade around the school. We are still looking for candy donations by 10/29 if you are able to donate we greatly appreciate that! Please remember that students need to be in school friendly costumes and no weapons.
Thank you all so much for coming out to our family night on Friday. A BIG thank you to our PTA, teachers and volunteers that supported this event.

What a great two weeks it has been so far this year! Our students and staff are settling into the daily routines, teachers have been teaching routines and behavior expectations to help get all students on track for a great school year!
Thank you for the supplies that you have sent in for your child's classroom and thank you for keeping up on Dojo messages and papers that come home. One more thing you can do to help your child have the best day possible is to make sure they are at school on time. Students should be standing in their class line by 8:20(no playground play before school). Students enter the building at 8:25 and students who arrive after 8:30 are marked tardy. When late, students struggle to get their day off to a good start. We know September is busy and we appreciate your support!
Welcome back!! We are very excited to see all of our students back on Tuesday. 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.

Here it is! The last week of the school year. Like every year, this year provided some ups and some downs and a whole lot of student growth. I absolutely love looking back over the year and thinking about how far our students have come from the beginning of the school year. It makes me very proud to see the the academic and social growth our students have shown. The students, staff and families have all worked very hard and it shows! Thank you for your support and dedication to our students!
I hope everyone enjoyed the long weekend and took a moment to remember the reason for the holiday. Memorial day is a day of remembrance for those who lost their life during their military service.
We are in the final count down with just 9 days to go! Keep an eye on the calendar as we have a number of fun events and activities coming up.
Well here we are in the last 3 weeks of school! Let's keep going for a strong finish! Even though it is the end of the year there is still a lot to do to wrap up the year and make sure we are all ready for next year. Attendance is still important! We want all of our students here every day to enjoy all the lessons and fun we have planned!
We have a small adjustment to our Book fair dates. The book fair will begin on Wednesday and run through the following Wednesday. Check with your child's teacher for the date your child will shop. Remember this is BOGO-Buy one, get one free! This is a great way to get your child stocked up on summer reading material!
There are also a number of activities at the public library that your child can participate in along with our Summer Busting with learning bus. Keep and eye on Dojo for dates that our Wayne Westland literacy bus will be at Hamilton!

As the weather warms up please remember that our school is air conditioned, keep this in mind when planning what your student will wear. Also, students MAY NOT wear flip flops or slides, this is a hazard on the play ground. Students need to have close toed shoes on at school. Also please make sure students' shirts and shorts cover them well enough so that when they are playing at recess, siting on the floor and participating in school activities they are covered appropriately.
Hello Hamilton Families,
Happy Mothers Day! I hope you are enjoying a day being celebrated or celebrating a special mom in you life! Thank you also for all the wonderful gifts that you sent in last week for teacher appreciation week, that was very kind of you!
