There will be Senior Class Parent Meeting on Thursday, August 29th at 6:00pm in the school lunch room. This meeting will share important information and dates led by class sponsors. A parent for each South Holt Senior is highly encouraged to attend this meeting.

South Holt is off to a great start! Today and tomorrow are early dismissal days. Students will be dismissed at 1:00. Elementary car riders should be picked up on the elementary playground side of the building. When picking up students, please remain in your vehicle while in the circle drive. Students will wait on the sidewalk with school staff until their vehicle pulls around to the sidewalk. These procedures help maintain safety of staff and students during dismissal. If you wish to pick up your student in person, please park on the street on the west side of the school and walk down the sidewalk to meet your child. Thank you for helping maintain safety for all students and staff during dismissal.

South Holt starts the school year tomorrow morning! Looking forward to the first day!
