Holliman Hornets Family Newsletter

I wanted to take a moment to send a quick hello and let you know that I am healing well and very much on the mend. While I continue to recover, I miss our students greatly and think of the Holliman community often.

It seems the groundhog has seen his shadow and unfortunately, six more weeks of winter! Even so, it’s heartwarming to know that inside Holliman, our students and staff continue to bring so much energy, joy, and learning to each day.

I am incredibly proud of our students and grateful for the wonderful work happening in the building. Holliman is in excellent hands, and Mrs. McElroy is truly enjoying every minute of her time supporting our school community.

Thank you for your continued kindness, patience, and support. I am looking forward to returning toward the end of February or early March and reconnecting with our students, staff, and families.

Sincerely,

Dr. Cabana, Principal

If possible, please bring your child's negative school lunch balance current.

*Even if families don't qualify for free or reduced-price meals, we can help through our community partners at West Bay Community Action using our Meal Assistance Program (MAPs). Funds can be added to a family's account to cover balances owed, as well as to add funding for future meals. They can get that set up by reaching out to West Bay at 401-732-4660 or info@westbaycap.com.

Please remember to call the attendance line whenever your child will be absent from school and to include a reason for the absence—even if it is to spend time with family. Providing a reason helps us better understand our students’ attendance patterns and identify when a child or family may need additional support from our attendance team.

Our goal is not to penalize absences, but to gain a clearer picture of what may be impacting attendance, such as a health concern, family situation, or travel.

If there is ever a barrier to your child arriving at school on time, we encourage you to reach out and let us know how we can help. There is a great deal that happens at the start of the school day, and arriving on time helps students feel settled and ready to learn. That said, we are always happy to welcome students to school—even if they arrive a little late.

Our Kindergarten spots fill up quick! Register your incoming Kindergartener ASAP!
