    Mission Statement

    Hamilton High School (HHS) will emerge as the premiere high school in the United States for high school student athletes wanting the best athletic training and the best in academic preparation.  Each Academy will provide the prep student athlete the best environment to develop physically, mentally, technically, and academically.  Graduates will be prepared academically and athletically to succeed.

     

    Opportunities

    The current student athlete attends school daily and then trains in their sport at night. Many student athletes leave the home at 6:30 AM for school and finish their sport training at 9 PM resulting in an environment not conducive to good academics or family life. This strains the student athlete both athletically, academically, socially, and financially. There is considerable opportunity to provide a singular academy that will educate and train the student athlete at the same facility in an integrated manner.  This improves the education and training experience while creating an improved quality of family life.  The demand in the community is for the best academic experience coupled with the best athletic scenario.

    Concept
    This year over 700 students are participating in the Academies. 

    Bottom Line: Better value, academics, and a better lifestyle.  Serious student-athletes will enjoy the benefits of high school sports and top academics.
