Last Monday, Jim Porter from the Kansas Department of Education presented Hamilton Elementary with the Challenge Award. This award recognizes schools in Kansas that are making great accomplishments despite the many challenges they may face. They specifically recognize schools for outstanding achievement and uncommon accomplishments based on the state's assessment results in math and reading, chronic absenteeism rates, and the socio-economic status of those who take the test. Way to go Tigers!!!
