Hamlin is so proud of you!

The Hamlin teachers and staff had fun celebrating Teacher Appreciation Week with a series of games and challenges. The teachers solved The Grimmerie, had makeovers to be Popular, challenged each other in the Flying Monkey toss and followed the Yellow Brick Road to fun. It was a wonderful week and truly showcased how much we LOVE our teachers and staff.

Thank you to all the families that brought in treats and gifts for our staff!!
