What Makes Our School Unique?

 

    Fall-Hamilton is a growing school that has been providing quality education to this community for more than 30 years. Our experienced staff and teachers are dedicated to providing every child with the best educational opportunity possible. We are in our tenth year as an Enhanced Option School. Our school offers an extended day with an additional 45 minutes of instruction during the school day and many special services that supplement our school program. These programs include: Family Resource Center, Family School Coordinator, Centerstone Counselor, Reading Specialist, Guidance Counselor, Encore teacher and two computer labs.

    The faculty and staff have worked hard to develop a school-wide improvement plan to address student achievement, safety, discipline, and attendance. We are committed to providing each child the very best education and determined to strengthen every student’s ability to develop the skills needed to be a successful learner. The children of Fall-Hamilton are our hope for tomorrow and our responsibility for today
