Everglades Elementary Student Council

To those who paid the ultimate sacrifice.. May we never forget..

After today's EES Student Council pizza party and awards ceremony, we had one last thing to celebrate. EES Student Council Officers & 5th Grade reps held a retirement party for their Student Council Sponsor, Mrs. Hollin, who is retiring after dedicating 36 years of her life to the Okeechobee County School System; with the last 26 years being the EES Student Council sponsor. With a heavy heart, but lots of joy, we say THANK YOU to Mrs. Hollin on a job well done!!! We wish you all of the best in your retirement!!!

Congratulations on another successful year to our EES Student Council Officers, Representatives and Student Council Sponsor, Mrs. Hollin. To celebrate, we had our annual pizza party and awards ceremony.

Here are some pictures of our EES Student Council after the Earth Day "Save The Water" skit and information on our Earth Day celebration & coloring contest.

We would like to say a special THANK YOU to South Florida Water Management for sponsoring the school wide coloring contest and for providing all of the prizes.
