Seeking Host Families
CETUSA is seeking host families for the 2024-25 school year to host foreign exchange students at Hamilton High School! Hosting a foreign exchange student is such a rewarding experience for your entire family. It is a "show and tell" as you teach your new family member about our culture and watch them experience all their "firsts". The student will bring a bit of their culture into your home to share as well. Students come from over 20 different countries and are carefully selected based on maturity, academics, and English language skills. Each student will come with their own health insurance and monthly spending money to cover personal expenses.
- Must be at least 25 years of age
- Must complete online application
- Must pass a background check
- Provide a spare bed, some transportation for school activities
- Treat the student like your own child

Our baton twirling classes not only focus on teaching children how to twirl a baton, our classes encourage teamwork, poise, hand-eye coordination, as well as help children build their self-esteem. Students learn baton twirling tricks in class as well as routines. Students will also have an opportunity to be in a competition and parades.
This is a great opportunity which can lead to students becoming a majorette for their school and a scholarship to college!

The Gate is a drop-in style after-school program for middle school students in the Hamilton area starting on September 20.

A crossing guard will be available for students to walk safely across 136th Ave. after school. There’s also a new program coordinator Sandy Cockrum (Harbottle), a retired teacher who taught at Hamilton Community Schools for 25 years and is happy to be at The Gate this year!
