With the turning of the calendars, we are again looking to the future. We are currently looking for parents to form the nominating committee so that we can select next year's PTA Board.  Click here for information on getting on nominating committee.  

 

Also, even if the joining the Board isn't in your future, it's never too late to join the PTA as a member.

  **Email Christy Pearson-Wohlwend if you have questions.

The PTA is on the lookout for parents who would like to help out with Spring Fling, Silent Auction, and Yearbook editor.  

 

If you have interest in helping make Holmes the best it can be, contact PTA President Christine Groves

All 5th grade students will be taking the California State Fitnessgram® Test as early as February! In an effort to improve our 53% score, fitness-minded parents are teaming up to design and implement a supplemental fitness program.
5th graders will be coming home for the holidays with "healthy homework" to jumpstart their progress. 

Parents you can keep off holiday pounds and have fun with your kids by doing homework together! (To see the healthy homework assignment click here.)

If you are interested in improving our kids (or your personal) fitness in the new year please contact Valerie Norris or Lisa Johnson. 

 

We will be holding tours for parents interested in Holmes on December 9th, January 10th and January 20th. Tours will begin with an orientation in the auditorium at 9:00 a.m., immediately followed with visits to the classrooms.
