Greetings Wildcat Families,
We are off to a ROARING start at Holmes! Our staff and students are settling into the school year. Over the past two weeks, they have been learning about our school motto, Together We Roar, along with the core values that align with it. A special thank you to our 2nd graders, who helped model these core values in our common areas.
It has been wonderful to see our school filled with students and to hear all the exciting learning taking place. We’ve noticed many smiling faces—some of them a little tired as everyone adjusts to new routines! With September here, the weather is beginning to change. Please make sure your child is dressed appropriately for outdoor recess, as we try to get them outside for fresh air as often as possible.
📸 A quick reminder: Picture Day is tomorrow! Please help your child come prepared and ready to smile.
Thank you to all of our families for supporting the updated arrival and dismissal procedures. These changes are helping us create a safer and smoother transition for students at the start and end of each day.
As always, my door is open. If you have any questions, concerns, or ideas to share, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I can be contacted directly at emaldonado@maercker.org.
With Wildcat Pride,
Elisa Maldonado
Principal, Holmes Primary
