Thomas W. Hamilton Elementary

Clothes Needed for Nurse’s Office

Nurse Stephanie is in need of pants, ONLY PANTS, for the little accidents that happen during the day at an elementary school. While we encourage all students to have a spare set of clothes in their locker year round, sometimes that doesn’t work out. Please send in any gently used or new PANTS SIZE 4-10 so that we can help our community. Send in with your student with a note. THANK YOU!

Message from Parent Council

On Friday, students went home with a Quincy Credit Union Green Light flyer program promoting financial literacy for kids. Quincy Credit Union generously contributed toward the cost of our upcoming STEM assembly, and the remaining portion will be covered through Fun Run proceeds. This is our first official sponsor supporting our kids, and the Assembly is booked for March 26th and is called Amazing Art Hero. Please consider supporting Quincy Credit Union as they continue to support our children.

Dismissal Procedure - Parents

We will have a very busy front door this year. If you are a parent waiting for Grades 1-5 students please be aware of your surroundings. Before students who are walkers are released, we will be boarding vans. We need a clear path for these students to get to their transportation home.

When you are exiting the area, please walk along the sidewalk to the crosswalk. We have staff stationed here to assist with you safely crossing. Entering the driveway anywhere but the crosswalk is not safe with cars, vans, and buses moving through.

Bus Expectations

We want to remind families that riding the bus is a privilege and that safety for all students is extremely important. We will continue to review behavior expectations and adjust individual plans as necessary so that all students are having a safe and enjoyable transportation experience.
