• Have a Heart for Art

    Congratulations to 7th graders Kathryn Bryan and Brittany Krug and to 6th graders Carlos Lopez and Cheyenne Edgin. Their artwork has been chosen to represent Lake Hamilton Middle School at the Have a Heart for Art Competition at the Malco Theater on February 3, 2012. Their artwork will be on display during February's Galley Walk from 5 to 9 p.m. on the 1st Friday night of the month.

  • Guest Speakers

    The 7th grade Pre-AP science classes enjoyed two guest speakers during the month of January. Shawn Welch and Luke Boganny, both perfusionists at St. Joseph's Hospital, gave a presentation on the responsibilities of their job, which is to keep the blood flowing in patients during heart surgery. They brought one of the machines they use and demonstrated how the equipment worked. They explained what a perfusionist monitors during surgery, and the education needed to enter the profession. Students had the opportunity to have the level of oxygen in their brain measured, with a few also having their heart rate monitored. A very informative and fun presentation!

  • iPad Fables

    Mrs. Alexander's students are using iPads to publish fables about determination. Students used pictures, drawings, and recordings of their voices to make the fable books.

  • Classroom Technology

    Mrs. House's Social Studies classes used the COW (Computer on Wheels) to create individual PowerPoints on the regions of the United States. Each student had a laptop on their desk to research their region's content and to use the PowerPoint program to construct their creative presentations.

    Mrs. House's Language Arts students used iPads to take a teacher created pretest from a new unit of study online. The students' individual results were recorded and sent to Mrs. House for instant feedback on her students' prior knowledge before starting the unit.

    posted Wednesday, November 9, 2011 @ 2:57 PM

    The National Center for Educational Achievement (NCEA), a department of ACT, Inc., recognized Lake Hamilton Middle School as a 2011 NCEA Higher Performing School. Lake Hamilton Middle School received Higher Performing (HP) recognition in the following areas: Higher performing in Math based on the number of students that have advanced scores in Math on the statewide Benchmark exams. The Higher Performing Schools (formerly known as Just for the Kids Schools) are identified by two measures: consistent improvement in student achievement from previous years (growth) and/or absolute student achievement using the schools advanced performance results on the spring 2011 Arkansas ABE (Augmented Benchmark Examinations). NCEA's higher performing methodology controls for school and student demographics to allow for an apples-to-apples comparison of school achievement and to demonstrate that with the commitment of educators, all schools can have success no matter the zip code. NCEA provided award certificates to each Higher Performing School and the district.
