You can help us greatly in our testing efforts by making sure that your children come to school well rested, with a good breakfast, and that they arrive on time. In addition to the above testing activities, the end of the school year also brings many special activities that help us celebrate our accomplishments and successes. Please note on the calendar these upcoming events so that you will be sure to be in attendance. But you can make schools even safer by raising your children to be tolerant, kind, and respectful. You can help even further by paying special attention to your child's needs, friends, development, and by seeking help if you, or they, need it.
Children learn what they live with.
Insist that they treat both children and adults with respect. Don't tolerate them bullying or being disrespectful. During those long summer months, don't forget to take your child to the library. Use it frequently and your child will see how important reading is to you. I have thoroughly enjoyed my first year as principal of Holly Hall Elementary.
