[quote=Anonymous]Please contact the counselor's office at Hamm directly. They are friendly and quick to respond. Currently, a 6th grader cannot take both chorus and a language. A lot of the responses are outdated or based upon other middle schools. Each APS middle school is different, because that's the APS way. And Hamm for this 6th grade class is very different from what the 8th grade was offered.

Your child is likely to make their elective selection in their 5th grade classroom (our child didn't bring hers home -- it was solely up to her), so if this matters to you, get the info from Hamm directly. Do NOT rely upon what your elementary school tells you; it's also likely not accurate, in our experience.

If your child needs physical exercise, they won't get it at school. PE is only every three weeks and rotates with health every three weeks. Outdoor time is limited to if there's time after lunch.

If your child needs challenged, fight for advanced math. We did not, and we should have.

Hamm is perfectly fine, but go get the info from the source.
