First Day Ready August 10, 2022

The first day of school is important for students of all ages- whether it is the first day of kindergarten or the first day of senior year. Attendance on the first day sets the tone for the rest of the school year. Hamilton County Schools wants every student to be #FirstDayReady!

Over the summer, Hamilton County Schools builds excitement leading up to the first day of the school year. We have many opportunities for you to ensure your child is #FirstDayReady such as our back-to-school bash, online school supply lists, and connections to resources. Our community members can get involved, too, through several engagement opportunities such as volunteering, donating school supplies, and encouraging the students in your community to be #FirstDayReady.

Everyone can help Hamilton County School students be #FirstDayReady.
