'Happy New Year' from Hamline Elementary

Hamline Elementary ended 2017 on a high-note with a successful book fair which saw over 70 books purchased directly for Hamline classrooms and over $800 earned for additional book purchases. We also hosted a Family Night dedicated to literacy support programs and organizations including Reading Partners, Mid-Continent Oceanographic Institute, Hamline Midway Library, and Children’s Book Express. Big thanks to everyone who participated in these events!

In 2018, we look forward to more school get-togethers, the development of new community partnerships, the expansion of existing ones, and to continue to welcome people to get to know our school community. If you’re a family looking for a PreK-5 school or a neighbor who wants to know more about this lively and growing community, come on over. We’ve set aside times for you to drop in and visit. Check it out:

January Welcoming Days

Jan. 23 (9-10:30am) and Feb. 16 and 30 (1-2:15pm)

We’re ready to greet the new year with Welcoming Days—a time when neighbors and families choosing a PreK-5 school can get to know the people, programming, and partnerships that make Hamline one-of-a-kind in St. Paul. Hamline staff and current families will lead tours, answer questions, and share all the reasons Hamline is a great place to connect, learn, and grow. No appointment is necessary for Welcoming Days. Just stop by the school’s main office, and we’ll take care of the rest, including something warm to drink and something sweet to eat.

Winter Warm-Up and Open House

Thur., Feb. 1, 5-7pm

This is not an ordinary Open House. It’s a bit of party, too—and you’re invited. After you’ve toured the building, met the Hamline staff, and talked to current families about why they chose and continue to choose Hamline, please join our school community for our Winter Warm-Up activities throughout the building and snacks in the cafeteria. It’s a good time to get to know a great Midway school. We hope to see you there!
