Holliman Elementary

Holliman 4th & 5th Grade Families Only,
We are excited to share that Drama Club will be starting up soon! This year, we are opening up auditions for 4th and 5th graders! Please see the attached flyer which will be going home with students later this week. There will be an informational meeting for families on Thursday, September 18th from 5:30-6:15 in the Holliman auditorium.

Good afternoon Holliman bus 49 is running about 20 minutes behind.

Holliman Families! Today was a GREAT day!
We cannot thank Playworks! & Blue Cross Blue Shield of RI enough for providing such a beautiful structured play ground for our Holliman students! This morning the students lined up on their new classroom line up lines in such an orderly way. They truly thrive on structure! Our students had been without a playground for an entire school year while our school was under renovations and we are beyond appreciative of what you have provided for our students! Our 4th and 5th graders lined up on their race track lines without guidance from our 5th grade safety patrol and required very little adult guidance! Today's recess was one of the BEST ever! Students engaged in structured play. Four square, race track and candy land were a HUGE hit! The "Safe and Loved" phrase painted close to the entrance of the blacktop reminds us all what Holliman is all about! As their principal, providing a safe and loved school environment is one of my top priorities!
Check out our website NEWS section for more photos of today's morning arrival and recess! And don't forget to check out our PTA Updates!

Good afternoon, Holliman bus 49 is running about 20 minutes late.

Our black top project courtesy of BCBS of RI and Playworks is coming along beautifully! I know many families like to spend time at our playground after school. Please avoid the blacktop. Thank you!

Good Morning Holliman Families,
Just a few reminders about morning arrival;
Please use the drop off loop via Mullen Rd. Pull all the way up as far as possible so that we can unload multiple cars at once.
If you must park please carefully enter the parking lot and go directly to the left and park. If you do park, you MUST walk your child through the parking lot to the walkway. For safety reasons, no child should be dropped off in the parking lot. If you are walking your child to school, please avoid standing near/ at the entrance to the lot. The buses need room to navigate the turn. Our morning arrival routine is one of the safest and efficient and I thank you all who help keep it that way.

***PTA Meeting Tonight***

Please join us at 6:15pm in the Holliman library. Zoom option also available. Reach out to hollimanpta@gmail.com for the link. Our Trunk or Treat committee will meet immediately following the PTA meeting. All are welcome!

Thank you,

Hello Holliman Families!
A HUGE thank you for this morning's smooth arrival! I don't think we have ever had all cars unloaded by 9:01 on the first day of this routine! Today did take longer than usual due to many families new to the "old Holliman" routines. The drop off loop does get quicker as the days go on. Older students may hop out of your vehicle on the passenger side onto the lined walkway and you may go around the vehicles that are unloading little ones. This also quickens the routine. Again thank you so very much for making morning arrival organized and safe for our students.
