Welcome to Hamilton Middle School

Welcome to the 2024-2025 School Year

Welcome to the 2024-2025 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 three 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.

Upcoming Dates to Remember:

  • Hawkeye Hometown Tailgate: September 20, 5:00-7:00 in the MS parking lot.

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:

Together with our dedicated staff, we strive to create a connected community that helps our wonderful students grow through their Hawkeye Experience. We are proud of our school and grateful to be part of a community where students, teachers, and parents care for each other and build relationships that support student growth.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions, comments, or concerns at 269.751.4436 or emorehou@hamiltonschools.us. I look forward to working with you and helping each student achieve their personal goals.

 The High School National Honor Society is offering tutoring services at Hamilton Middle School school.  This will begin on Wednesday, November 16.  This document is the information you need!
