Students at Sherry and Paul Hamm Elementary have been working hard to earn Dojo points by showing excellent behavior, demonstrating leadership, and being amazing Hamm Heroes.

One of the most exciting incentives our students work toward is winning Mojo the Dojo for their class. The class with the most Dojo points earns the chance to host Mojo for the week, a special honor that everyone looks forward to.

This week, Mojo made his way to 5th grade, where students have been leading the way with their positive actions and teamwork. In the photo, you can see some of our 5th grade boys working alongside Mojo, manning the walkie talkie during dismissal duty.

We are so proud of our Hamm Heroes for continuing to make positive choices and showing what it means to be leaders across our campus. Keep up the great work, heroes!

Sherry and Paul Hamm Elementary kicked off our very first Hero Huddle of the year with lots of excitement, energy, and celebration.

Students were recognized for their outstanding achievements and for showing what it truly means to be a Hamm Hero. The gym was full of cheers as each grade level showed off their brand-new chants, and they did not disappoint.

To top it all off, our amazing teachers took one for the team and got pied in the face as part of our final Boosterthon rewards. The laughter, smiles, and school spirit were absolutely contagious.

It was a perfect reminder of how strong our Hamm family is when we come together to celebrate hard work, kindness, and teamwork.

At Hamm Elementary, our Heroes don’t just learn about leadership. They live it. This year, our 5th graders have been given an exciting new challenge: helping lead our schoolwide PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports) system.

Hamm is a full Dojo campus, and our 5th graders are stepping up in a big way to make sure everything runs smoothly. They are helping manage our PBIS initiatives, organizing rewards, and ensuring our Dojo store stays stocked and ready for students who earn their points.

In this photo, our 5th graders are having a special “staff” lunch together. They are brainstorming ideas, collaborating, and planning the best ways to make our Dojo store even better for everyone on campus.

We are proud of these young leaders who are showing what it means to take responsibility, work as a team, and make Hamm Elementary a place where positive behavior and school spirit thrive.

At Hamm Elementary, we are deeply thankful for our school namesake, Sherry Hamm. Her dedication to our students goes far beyond lending her name to our building. She makes it a priority to be here, in classrooms, with our kids.

Mrs. Hamm spends her time moving from grade level to grade level, reading with students, teaching lessons, and sharing her love of learning. Her presence brings excitement and joy, and our Heroes light up when she walks into the room.

Her commitment to being a part of our school’s daily life reminds us all of the power of community and the importance of investing in our future leaders. We truly cherish Mrs. Hamm and the heart she pours into Hamm Elementary every day.

At Hamm Elementary, our tiniest Heroes are already making great leaps and strides! The start of kindergarten is filled with discovery, excitement, and new friendships. From the very first day, our classrooms are alive with hands-on learning. Manipulatives, centers, and activities spark curiosity and build confidence.

But it is not just about academics. It is about connection. As our kindergartners work together, they are learning the foundations of friendship, teamwork, and kindness. Those early bonds create a sense of belonging that helps every child thrive.

Hamm truly is a place to learn and grow. Watching our youngest Heroes take these first steps reminds us why we do what we do. We are nurturing bright futures, one small step at a time.

Our Hamm Heroes were buzzing with excitement this week as they showed their support for the Rockwall Yellowjackets during Homecoming Week! Students and staff came decked out in their favorite Jacket gear, from orange and black shirts to spirited accessories, celebrating the tradition and pride of our hometown team.

This spirit week wasn’t just about clothes. It was about community and the future. Many of our Hamm Heroes dream of becoming Yellowjackets themselves one day, and participating in Homecoming Week helps them see what school spirit, teamwork, and pride look like in action.

With every cheer and every piece of Jacket gear, our students are showing that they are already part of something bigger, a tradition of excellence and school pride. As the saying goes, JFND: Jackets Fight Never Dies!

Our 4th grade Hamm Heroes went on an exciting adventure to explore Austin, Texas—our amazing state capital! They had the chance to tour the majestic Capitol building, where they learned about Texas history, government, and some fun facts about our great state. The adventure didn’t stop there—they also explored stunning underground wonders at the caverns! It was a fantastic field trip filled with discovery, learning, and unforgettable memories. Way to go, 4th grade!

Our Hamm Heroes have been working hard, and the curtain has officially risen on Willy Wonka the Musical! From singing Oompa Loompas to golden ticket winners and everyone behind the scenes, our students have poured their hearts into bringing this magical story to life.

What made this production even sweeter? The incredible teamwork it took to make it happen! Staff, parents, and community members came together to support our young performers—building sets, sewing costumes, rehearsing lines, and cheering them on every step of the way. It truly was a full-stage effort!

Opportunities like this are what make Hamm Elementary so special. We’re proud to be part of Rockwall ISD, where creativity is celebrated, students are supported, and kids are always put first. Watching our students grow in confidence, talent, and teamwork is the real golden ticket.

Bravo to our cast, crew, and everyone who made this experience unforgettable!

This April, our campus was buzzing with joy as our amazing team brought a little extra sunshine to every classroom! With cheerful music, sweet treats, and a refreshing drink in hand, our cheerful crew popped by to surprise staff members with a well-deserved moment of appreciation.

Each visit was filled with smiles, laughter, and a sense of connection that reminded us how powerful small gestures can be. The treat cart may have rolled through the halls, but it was the spirit of gratitude and celebration that truly filled our hearts.

At Hamm Elementary, we love where we work—and it’s moments like these that remind us why. The joy, the camaraderie, and the thoughtful ways we lift each other up make our school a truly special place to be.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this moment so special—your positivity made April a month to remember!

Here’s to more joyful moments and continued appreciation for all the hard work our staff does every day.
