Hamilton Elementary had a very exciting morning! Fort Wayne’s Philharmonic joined us for a wonderful presentation.

On April 8, the solar eclipse will begin in Hamilton between 2 pm and 4 pm. Because the eclipse occurs during our dismissal time, there is no way for us to watch every student from looking directly at the sun which may harm their eyes. As a precaution, HCS will dismiss two hours early on April 8. Please plan accordingly. IF IT IS A CLOUDY DAY WHERE THE SUN CANNOT BE SEEN, WE WILL HAVE A FULL DAY OF SCHOOL. That decision will be made on April 7 or the morning of April 8th.
