Thank you to everyone who came out for the Hampton PTA golf outing and supporting our students and staff!

So true. Sometimes I have to take a deep breath when frustrated and realize that sometimes students act like children because they’re kids:)

One of Dr. Klipsch’s favorite things: classroom dance parties to celebrate a great day of learning!

Sounds about right! 💯

What a great way to start the day! This student did a writing assignment that described how to make the perfect omelet. He then got to test it out! Dr. Klipsch is always happy to be a taste tester:)

Over 20 years ago I started teaching 4th grade and had zero classroom management. The only thing that ever worked was pulling out my guitar and writing lessons into songs. So blessed to visit 4th grade today as superintendent to dust off the same songs! So fun! Hampton Hawks

“It’s only when you know something about a profession that you’re timid, you’re careful.” What a great message for educators. Let’s approach our work with an empty mind, with creativity, willing to explore new ideas and dream for that which seems impossible.

I’m excited to launch Hampton’s new website! Check it out: hampton29.com

It’s Career Day in Hampton! This student dressed up like a principal! He’s coming for my job!
