PTO's ROLE AT HAMILTON MIDDLE SCHOOLHamilton has an amazing group of teachers and administrative staff who work hard to make this school a wonderful, rich environment for everyone. To help support the many excellent programs and initiatives that make Hamilton MS a top HISD middle school, the PTO provides leadership, volunteer opportunities, information and financial support.
WHY SHOULD I GET INVOLVED?Being an active and involved parent in middle school is challenging for many reasons, but the benefits outweigh these challenges. While middle school students are searching and finding new ways to express themselves, new identities, and gaining independence from parents, it still holds true that being an involved parent at your child's middle school increases the potential for greater academic success for your child.Volunteering, lending financial support, or becoming a member of the Executive Board--all of these activities demonstrate your commitment to your child's academic life, and your child recognizes your commitment.HOW CAN I BENEFIT?The Hamilton PTO provides opportunities to meet and to talk with other parents who have the same goals, aspirations and concerns as you. Being part of the PTO results in parental support and makes school involvement easier for everyone. The PTO provides the opportunity to serve, to volunteer, and to contribute to the welfare of all children, because children represent our future.
