Project Soapbox

Hamilton Middle students, along with students from all MMSD middle and high schools, recently participated in Project Soapbox at the Overture Center. Project Soapbox is a public speaking program where students create speeches on issues impacting them and their communities. Among the hundred or so participants, two Hamilton Middle students landed in the top ten and were given the chance to give their speeches on the main stage at the event! Congratulations to all participating Hamilton students, and to Aubree and Emily for their top finishes!
