Hamilton Middle School science teacher Becky Burg, Hamilton High School health sciences teacher Marie Antonioli, and Hamilton School District Spectra enrichment specialists Arielle Rhodes and Echo Allison were all recently notified of their awards.

Burg will receive a $7,500 grant for compound microscopes for eighth-grade students who enroll in the forensic science class at Hamilton Middle School.
