Hamilton High School's Classroom Without Walls recently engaged in their annual three day trip to Yellowstone National Park.

On last day of their trip (Sunday), students woke up at 4AM to drive out to the Lamar Valley. Here, they met with a biologist on the Wolf, Elk, and Cougar Project. He taught them about his research on wolves and mountain lions while students observed three wolves near their den. The class then traveled east and hiked up to Trout Lake where they observed birds, bison and lots of Yellowstone cutthroat trout.

Throughout the trip, students saw a variety of wildlife including two grizzly bears, one black bear, wolves, coyotes, elk, bison, pronghorn, and several bird species.

Thank you to Stock Farm Greater Ravalli Foundation and Hamilton High School FFE for funding this incredible experience!

Hamilton High School's Classroom Without Walls recently engaged in their annual three day trip to Yellowstone National Park. Students began their adventure last Friday with a cave tour at Lewis and Clark Caverns, where they learned about the cave history and saw several bats.

On Saturday, they visited Norris Geyser Basin, where they ran into the Daly Elementary 4th graders who were on their Expedition Yellowstone trip. Five of the CWW seniors had attended the very 1st 4th grade trip to Yellowstone eight years ago and were excited to get a picture with Mr. Redmond. The CWW class then headed south to Grand Prismatic Spring and Old Faithful. They finished their Saturday with a campfire along the Yellowstone River.

Bitterroot Polytech Charter School and Hamilton High School students attended a forklift safety and theory course yesterday morning with the Montana Building Industry Association (MBIA) Grip Safety instructor Monty Jensen. They then had the opportunity to visit Pigman Builders' yard to see a telehandler forklift in person. Students were able to directly apply some of the classroom material to the field experience. A special THANK YOU to Pigman Builders for their partnership in this program and for hosting our students! This is a great example of how the Hamilton School District is giving our students real world experiences & opportunities that prepare them for the workforce! Go Broncs!

Spanish Club and other Spanish students from Hamilton High School joined Mrs. Marlatt (HHS) and Mrs. Bloomingdale (Washington Primary) in their first collaboration to celebrate multilingualism and cultural diversity. April 23rd is United Nations Spanish Language Day (Día del Idioma Español), and April 30 is celebrated annually as Día del Niño (Day of the Child) in Mexico & as El Día de los Niños/El Día de los Libros (Children's Day/Book Day) in the US, honoring children and fostering a love for literacy. In recognition of these 2 days, over 20 high school students volunteered to visit Washington Primary School classes to teach colors, numbers, and animals. The students participated in 20 minute workshops that included simple instruction in Spanish, then tested their retention with games. Students who learned colors played a version of red light green light; students who learned how to count to ten got to count out baby goldfish; and students who learned animals also learned what sounds they make in Spanish and how they are different. Did you know the sound that birds make in Spanish isn't chirp or tweet? It's pio, pio. For more Spanish fun, try looking up children's songs on YouTube. Super Simple Espanol has a great collection of songs that will get stuck in their head and yours! Thank you to everyone who made this visit possible, and hopefully we can do many more in the future!

Sophomore Anthony Steuerwald has distinguished himself as one of the most exceptional mathematics students in the state. His performance at the Montana Council of Teachers of Mathematics (MCTM) Math Contest held earlier this year placed him in the top 2% of students statewide—an achievement that reflects not only his deep conceptual understanding, but also his ability to think critically under pressure. Consistently demonstrating precision, creativity, and perseverance, he approaches complex problems with confidence and curiosity. His success serves as a testament to his strong work ethic and genuine passion for mathematics, setting a high standard for academic excellence among his peers.

Anthony deserves a tremendous shout out, and all of us at Hamilton High School are incredibly proud of his academic accomplishments. Earning a top 2% ranking in the state is no small feat, especially as he competed against students from all grade levels across Montana. This achievement highlights not only his exceptional mathematical ability, but also his dedication, discipline, and drive to excel. Anthony’s success stands as an inspiring example of what hard work and passion can achieve.

Great job Anthony! We are proud of you! – HHS Math Department!
