Welcome to Holmes Elementary

Good Evening Holmes Families!  This is Mr. Anglin with your weekly update for Tuesday, January 19th.

Semester 1 Report Cards

Semester 1 ended on January 15th.  Semester 1 Report Cards will be emailed by your student’s teacher on Friday, January 22nd.

2nd Semester

The 2020-21 school year is halfway complete!   As we begin the 2nd Semester next week, and with the possible return to face to face learning, it is important to remember that attendance and student engagement while attending class is very important.  Thank you for your support!

Please feel free to reach out to me or your child’s teacher if there is any support we can provide.

Virtual Learning Labs
