Dear Parent or Guardian,
Hamilton Middle School will be conducting its first 6th Grade Academy August 3rd through August 7th from 7:30-11:30 A.M. All incoming 6th grade students to Hamilton are invited to attend.
During the Academy, the students will receive an orientation about Hamilton. We are hopeful that your child will become familiar with the building. During this week, students will practice the use of their lockers, hallway expectations, lunchroom routines, and locations of important areas of the building: Student Support Center, Elective/Exploratory classrooms, entrances and exits. Each student will have opportunities to learn how to use his/her Student Planner which is the foundation of student organization at Hamilton. The students will be introduced to two successful academic programs infused into the core curriculums, Accelerated Reader and Step Up To Writing. During this week, assessments will be administered to determine appropriate reading and math levels.
We would like students to attend each day of the academy. There will be team building activities and other opportunities for students to interact with one another. We want students to begin making connections with students, teachers and staff that will be part of their experience at Hamilton Middle School.
If you are eligible for transportation, transportation will be provided.
If you have questions and/or RSVPs, please email Brian Truax at brian_truax@dpsk12.org OR return the bottom section of this letter with the student’s full name and your signature by Monday, July 27th.
Sincerely,
Reina Gutierrez, Principal
Brian Truax and Barbara Nash, Assistant Principals
