PTSA News


Welcome to Hamilton! We are excited to partner with you again this year to continue to support Hamilton staff and our community. The Hamilton Middle School Parent Teacher Student Association (PTSA) is a non- profit organization whose goals are to support Hamilton staff and students through fundraising opportunities and to connect our community through hosted events and activities. Our goal this year is to raise $15,000 to help reach our goals!

Ways you can help PTSA:

  • Become a member HERE: $15, $25 and $50 membership levels available, or donate any amount that works for you – even $5 helps! There is nothing required of you by becoming a member of PTSA. Your membership simply helps us pay our dues to continue to function as a PTSA.
  • Come to a meeting! Our meetings are held on the 2nd Wednesday of every month @ 5:30pm in the Community Room at Hamilton. This is a great way to learn about what is happening at our school. Our first meeting is September 11th!
  • Visit our swag shop HERE and have the coolest Hamilton gear around delivered right to your door.
  • Attend our Fall Festival on Saturday, September 21st from 11am-2pm. Games, food trucks, pumpkin patch, raffles and SO much more!
  • Click HERE for more information about the Hamilton PTSA.
  • Attend our Dine-Out events! We have one Dine-Out event every month and a percentage of our sales from that day goes directly back to PTSA.

Thank you for your consideration!

Community Information


Collaborative School Committee

Dear Hamilton Community,

Every school within the Denver Public School District has a Collaborative School Committee (CSC) in place.  The CSC brings together staff, parents, students, and community members to create and implement a plan to promote high achievement and a safe & welcoming environment within the school.

Being a part of the CSC is an exciting opportunity to be involved in our school community, not to mention to participate in the education of all our students.  Our school is working towards some great goals and we believe that by working together, we can achieve them!

We have seven openings on our CSC: 3 parents or guardians, 1 community member, 1 PTSA member and 2 students. We will meet once a month from September through May, with potentially several additional meetings in the Spring. We ask that CSC members participate in the meetings consistently and commit to being a member for the entire school year.

If you are interested in your name being placed on the ballot for one of the openings, please complete  the nomination form on this link by Friday August 30th. 

If you would like more information concerning the CSC before making a decision, please feel free to contact me  at Mark_Fritzenschaft@dpsk12.net.  I will be happy to answer any questions you may have.

I encourage you to participate in this great work.

In partnership,

Dr. Mark Fritzenschaft

Principal
