We were excited to welcome our newest staff members to Hamilton Community Schools during New Staff Orientation today! They toured the district, participated in training sessions, connected with their new colleagues, and learned more about what makes Hamilton such a special place.
They come to us with different backgrounds, experiences, and roles, but they already share two important things: a love for kids and a love for Hamilton.
We’re grateful to have them on our team and can’t wait to see the difference they make for our students in the year ahead!
