Welcome to the 2025-2026 School Year

Welcome to the 2025-2026 school year! We are thrilled to welcome all new and returning families to a fantastic year at Hamilton Middle School. Our school is a special place where students learn and flourish. Over the past four years, I have witnessed our students’ kindness, compassion, and tremendous growth.

We hold high expectations for our students, and our instruction will continue to focus on the skills and content needed to master grade-level material. Additionally, we will set aside specific time to meet each student where they are, providing targeted support in Math and Reading.

This Year’s Focus:

• Improving Reading Skills: We will emphasize vocabulary across all content areas as well as reading informational text.

• Expanding Personal Responsibility: Helping students take ownership of their learning.

• Building Community: Continuing to foster a strong sense of connection within the middle school.

To stay informed about all that’s happening at HMS and Hamilton Community Schools, please ensure your cell phone number and email are updated in Final Forms so you can receive our messages. I will send a monthly Middle School newsletter at the beginning of each month, and you can also visit our website and social media platforms for the latest news and upcoming events:
