Last week, Ma'Kai Warren and Cadence Conner enjoyed a Harlem Globetrotters game at Lakepoint Sports. Lakepoint, one of our partners in the Bartow Cares 4 U/Bee Relational Campaign, recognized essay winners from across the district. Participating students answered the question, "Who are you grateful for and why?" Ma'Kai and Cadence did an amazing job and we were proud to have them representing Hamilton Crossing Elementary School! #betterinBartow

Dear Parent or Guardian,
Hamilton Crossing Elementary School will take the new Georgia School Climate Survey this year. Each parent or guardian is invited to take the family version to answer questions about the current school or schools you have a child or children attending. If two or more children attend the same school, please only complete one survey for that school.
The survey measures what you think about how the school engages with families. Answers are not linked to names in any way. When typing answers, please do not give names or information that you don’t want to share with this school. Data will be shared with school leaders to help improve the school and will be published on the GaDOE website.
Please help by sharing your honest opinion on this 22-question survey. To take the survey, please visit https://survey.gadoe.org/FM?sid=F7F81818 or use the QR code attached.
Thank you!
