Dear Families,
Our Book Blast event has just a few days left. If you haven’t registered your student yet, please use this link to sign up and invite 10+ friends and family: https://app.booksarefun.com/HamiltonMS35570
Already registered? We still need your help to get more books for our students. Inviting 2 more friends or family to this wonderful cause will help us reach our goal (use the link above).
Your participation also helps our teachers earn school supplies and books for their classrooms, and your student still has a chance to win a Treasure Chest stuffed with cash!
Thank you for showing our students they are supported by you, your friends, family, and our community!
Thank you,
Norman Ballard


We have received updated information this evening concerning Hurricane Francine. In order to make sure that we keep our students safe, all Marion County Schools will be closed tomorrow. Please stay safe!

🚌 Stop for the bus so you’re not stopped by us! 🚔🛑
Please stop for school buses when they are picking up or dropping off students.
In Alabama, the law requires you to stop when the bus’ red lights and stop sign are activated:
- On a two-lane road: Traffic in both directions must stop.
- On a four-lane road without a median: All lanes of traffic must stop.
- On a divided highway with a median: Only traffic following the bus must stop.
