5th and 6th grade teacher, Mrs. Butler, recently received a "Plant a Prairie" grant from the Kansas Native Plant Society. This grant includes garden kits with 32 live native plants of grasses and wildflowers. Students will enjoy the hands-on experience of planting and tending their mini-prairie as well as learning the basics of plant biology and prairie ecology. The completed garden helps preserve our natural heritage by providing a way station for various pollinators. Funding for "Plant a Prairie" is provided by the Gary and June Kliesen Memorial Fund. Gary and June were active KNPS members and advocates for native plants and prairie restoration. The purpose of the Kliesen Fund is to engage youth in starting prairie gardens. We are excited about this opportunity for our students! CONGRATULATIONS, Mrs. Butler!!

Way to go - SUPER PROUD OF YOU ALL!!
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!!!
