Hamilton PTO/Citizenship Ceremony
Thursday, October 26th @ 6:00pm
Each month we recognize a student from each classroom who demonstrated the core character value of the month. Students who demonstrated September's core character value, RESPECT, across the school were nominated by their teacher to be recognized at the beginning of our PTO meeting on Thursday, Oct. 26th promptly at 6:00pm in the media center. This will be a short celebration with students receiving a t-shirt and certificate.
PTO Clubs Choice Fundraiser Coming SOON...
October 23-November 7
One of our most effective fundraisers at Hamilton is Clubs Choice. Clubs Choice offers a variety of products, from food and giftwrap to housewares. Students will bring home packets on October 23rd to share with family and friends. Orders will arrive by December 6th. Every dollar earned through fundraisers at Hamilton is invested in our students. Our PTO funds fieldtrip experiences, playground equipment, patrols, and so much more. Thank you for considering how you can support Hamilton!
