Schools to remain closed 11/1/2023

Dear Cottonwood, Hamilton Elementary, and Hamilton Secondary School Families:


We hope this message finds you well. We want to provide you with an update on our school’s status in relation to the Highland Fire. Due to the continued challenges presented by the fire, we have made the decision to keep schools closed on November 1, 2023. 


As we shared yesterday, these decisions are not made lightly but after much consideration in regard to the safety of students, staff, and families. We will continue to provide daily updates regarding the status of schools.


Thank you for your understanding and continued support.


Thank You,

Hemet Unified
