Dance!!

Last Friday night the teeming masses enjoyed our first Hamilton Middle dance since fall 2019! A big shout out to our Student Voice Collective (StuVoCo) for helping to organize the dance. Thanks as well to Hamilton AP Danny Keegan and PBIS Coach Jen Muth for their efforts to make the dance a reality. Thank you to Hamilton staff members and parents who helped supervise the dance. And lastly, thank you to our students for upholding our behavior expectations at the dance. It all means that we will get plans started for a spring dance!

Reminder: UW School of Public Health Brain Study Opportunity

The UW School of Public Health is once again seeking youth ages 10-16 and their caregiver to participate in a research study. The study is looking at normal brain development in youth as well as the impact of childhood adversity on the brain. Study visits include clinical interviews, MRI brain scans, surveys, and various computer games/tasks. All visits take place outside of school hours at a clinic on Madison's West Side. Families are compensated after each study visit. For more information, see the link.
