Principal's Corner

Dear Hamlin Parents:

There are a few dates and items I would like you to be aware of that will impact you and your student. First of all, we will be ending the second six weeks, Friday November 11th and report cards will go home on November 18th. Students and staff will also enjoy a Thanksgiving break from November 21st to November 25th.
Secondly, we will also be celebrating Veteran's Day at 9:00 a.m. on November 11th and you all are invited to attend.
Thirdly, we are having several students "hanging out" after 4:15 either on the campus or at the park. Your student's safety is our first priority. You all should have received a letter in the mail, please call our office if you have questions.
Finally, we are having issues with students who are tardy to class and we will be implementing a new tardy policy. Please check our web site for that information.

Thanks for your support, and please call my office if we can assist you with anything.

Delma Yzaguirre
Proud Principal of Hamlin M.S.
