We are currently working out the details of Gov. Abbott’s school closure. I am working with teachers and staff to formulate plans for mobile learning. Please be patient as we line everything out.
Stay safe!

I received an email from Texas FFA Association this morning. As of now, all judging contests and degree check that are scheduled through mid April are being postponed.
Just a reminder that there is NO track meet in Hamilton today.
JISD understands that there are many questions concerning Governor Abbott’s waiver to the 2020 STAAR testing. As the school district receives more instruction from the state, we will pass on the information to the community. Please be patient with us as we all navigate through this unprecedented event.
