Hidup Sambil Belajar

Murid-murid dengan hati bersatu penuh semangat membara

Mendapat didikan serta ilmu demi kemakmuran negara

Menghadapi segala cabaran mengatasi segala bebanan

Rajin berusaha dalam pelajaran dan cemerlang di bidang sukan

Bertabah hati, yakinkan diri, hidup adil saksama

Sentiasa bersyukur, mencintai yang luhur dan bertimbang rasa,

Dengan hasrat untuk menjayakan cita sumpah dan ikrar,

Di Sekolah Menengah Hamid Khan hidup sambil belajar.

Prefect's Board

The Prefect's Board plays a very important role in helping the school to maintain the discipline of the students. The committee members(2005) are Keshvinder Singh, Amardeep Singh, Sudeep Narula, Ch'ng Mun Chern, Shaun Wong, Andrew Wong, Gan Hing Seong, Nalayini, Ooi Song Shin, Lim Lay Yuin, Koe Jin Xiang, Syakirin, Jolyn and Muhammad Roshdi. It has been suggested that this batch of prefects were the best ever, although this issue is strongly disputed due to the lack of support for the Head Prefect during the early months of the year.

By the end of 1976, this school had two blocks (two storeys high) which consists of a general office, principal's office, vice principal's office, teacher's room, a library, two science labs, an art room and fourteen class rooms.

Originally, it was an all-girls school which was called Island Glades Girls School. It was then changed to Sekolah Menengah Island Glades as they changed it into a mixed school. Finally, the name Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Hamid Khan was given in honour of Captain Hamid Khan who played a significant role in the education ministry before Malaysia's independence.
