Attention HHS & HMS Parents/Guardians:

Please note that Friday, December 5th , is a regular, full school day for all students, despite hosting the 13/14 Class C Tip-Off Tournament at both Hamilton High School (HHS) and Hamilton Middle School (HMS).

We experience a high volume of calls to check students out on special event days. Please plan ahead if you must check your student out for an excused absence tomorrow. Your support in keeping students in school for the full day is greatly valued.

In addition, any HMS students who are checked out of school to attend the tournament must be accompanied by an adult.

Go Broncs and Lady Broncs!
