Hamilton Community Schools is thrilled to introduce Shawna Cozzello as Hamilton Middle School secretary! Ms. Cozzello has years of experience in education and recently moved to Hamilton with her family last fall. Please join us in welcoming her to Hamilton and our Hawkeye Family! 🖤💛 "Since being here and being a part of the community, we have felt such an embrace of community and have felt accepted from the very beginning. One thing that really stood out to me right away was going to the website and seeing Hamilton 'Community' Schools and how it's a community. It's a family-oriented place and it feels like one big family." Learn more about Shawna with this Q&A on our district website: https://lnkd.in/g6fFfqnr
