Greetings, Hampton Hornet Family!

Welcome to the 2026–2027 school year at Hampton Middle School! I hope your summer provided your family with opportunities to rest, recharge, make memories, and spend quality time together. As we prepare for another exciting year, I am filled with anticipation for all that we will accomplish together!

Before we launch into our next mission, let's celebrate the tremendous progress we made last year. Hampton Middle School experienced growth in every tested area of the Georgia Milestones Assessment. These gains were the result of students who persevered, educators who remained committed to excellence, and families who supported their children every step of the way. Thank you for being an important part of the Hampton Hornet Family!

🚀 OUR NEXT MISSION: EXCELLENCE!

This year, our theme is Mission Possible: Destination Hampton Middle School — The Ultimate Destination.

Our destination is excellence, and every classroom is a launchpad for student success. We are committed to defying gravity and elevating EVERY student by focusing on two important priorities:

• Increasing mastery of grade-level standards in every content area
• Increasing literacy across every classroom, every day

Our students deserve an extraordinary middle school experience — one that sparks curiosity, builds confidence, inspires perseverance, and empowers them to believe that anything is possible!

🐝 FAMILIES, WE NEED YOU ON THIS MISSION!

Student success is a partnership between school, home, and community. We ask you to help us make this mission possible by:

✔ Encouraging daily attendance and being ready to learn
✔ Monitoring grades, assignments, and academic progress
✔ Encouraging reading and learning at home
✔ Communicating with teachers and staff
✔ Celebrating growth, effort, and perseverance
✔ Helping your child set goals and believe in their potential
✔ Staying connected to Hampton Middle School

When families and schools work together, students soar!

🌟 THE COUNTDOWN HAS BEGUN!

Mission Control is ready.
Our crew is assembled.
The destination is set.

This is more than a theme. It is our commitment to excellence, our promise to every student, and our belief that together, there is nothing we cannot accomplish.

Hampton Hornet Family, buckle up! The journey is about to begin, and I am honored to have you with us for the ride.

Let's make 2026–2027 our greatest mission yet!

ONE TEAM. ONE MISSION. EVERY STUDENT. EVERY DAY.

EXCELLENCE IN ALL THAT WE DO! 🐝💜💛

With Hornet Pride,

Dr. Lydia H. Williams
