If your child is under the weather please keep them home. When a child is sick their immune system is low which makes them more susceptible to catching another illness. It also makes the spreading of germs to healthy kids greater. COVID-19 has changed the guidelines and extra care is required to keep your child as well as Hamilton healthy. Please see the attached flyer “How Sick is too Sick” for guidance on when to keep your child home.
Winter Weather Procedure and Transportation Reminders
In anticipation of colder weather, we wanted to make sure you have the information you need for when weather affects the school day. Please note that the decision to close or delay school will be made by the superintendent based on information provided by representatives from DPS Transportation Services, transportation agencies and the weather bureau.
DPS is committed to informing you about school closures or delays as early as possible – with the goal to make the call by 5 a.m. This flier explains how Transportation Services operates if school is canceled or goes remote because of weather. Learn more about our weather delay and cancellation procedures here.
All Hamilton SWAG has been delivered. If you did not pick up your swag on Monday, Nov. 15th from PTSA, it was given to your child through their advisory class. Please contact PTSA Hamiltonptsadenver@gmail.com or dimarlys_suarez@dpsk12.org with your order number and questions. Thank you.
