My experience with Hamilton High School has been great. It has been my home ever since I was a baby and still is even as a senior. They offer great extracurricular activities along with a safe environment. I have never once felt out of place and discarded at Hamilton. My school does its very best to make sure students get the resources they need for their future while also staying in the present in a fun way. Our pep rallies are a way that we as one can celebrate each-other and come together and rejoice in our school pride.

The best thing about Hamilton High School was the science and engineering departments. The teachers went above and beyond what they were required to do.

Hamilton High School is an excellent school. Our children attended and graduated college with honors. Most of the teachers really care and the benefit of attending a small school was evident in test scores.
