Happy March Hamilton Families!
I hope this information finds you and yours well.
Students are diving into their creative Destination Imagination challenges, solving real life math problems, creating solutions to world-wide environmental issues through the Panasonic Eco Challenge, and critically analyzing their book studies. Ask your student about what they are doing in their GT small groups!
Reminder: this Thursday (3/9/23) our DPS GT team is hosting another Social Emotional Learning opportunity for GT families in both English and Spanish. Find more information here in English and Spanish.
