He then announced the names in a special end-of-day audio broadcast to all students last Friday 11/5. This included the announcement of the class party recipient for highest participation percentage. A BIG Congratulations to Mr. Hamilton’s 1st Period class on receiving this recognition with a class participation level of 114 percent… more memberships returned than students in the class!
