Good morning, Holt Junior High learning community. Happy Wednesday!

We're officially off to what will be a great year!

Yesterday, we started with our team in an inclusion activity involving "snowballs" and conversations about the "type of school" we'll be.

Today, our doors opened up!

We're continuing to become THE best school for all members of our learning community.

Morning, y’all. Happy Monday!

For tonight’s Open House we’re asking that you please utilize alternative lots (old Sycamore Elementary and lot between our building and the old Sycamore). Our auditorium lot is not ready at this time. The old bus lane, off of Sycamore St., can also be used too.

Please see the attached map. You’ll be able to enter our building through Door 4 and Door 1.

We’ll send out more communication for Wednesday, as far as drop-off and pick-up.

See you tonight!

We wanted to share a quick update about Aurelius Rd. construction and how it'll impact access to our building next week.

Aurelius Rd. will be closed beginning Monday, between Holt Rd. and Sycamore.

You'll need to follow an alternative route next week to access our auditorium parking lot for both the Open House and for drop-off and pick-up.

The auditorium entrance is where students enter the building between 7:00 and 7:30 AM. If students are dropped off after 7:30, they'll need to enter through the main entrance on the corner of Aurelius/Sycamore.

Pick-up after school is ONLY at the auditorium.
Thank you for your grace and understanding while we work through these construction logistics.

Both will be outstanding additions to our building, encompassing our core values around compassion, respect, and resilience, and ultimately doing what we do best, which is..."We educate...We love..."
