Girls on the Run to Start in September...Register NOW
Mrs. Sabin, Mrs. Baldridge and Miss Cuellar are excited to work with our 5th Grade girls through Girls on the Run. It's a 10-week running program where girls learn lessons on self-confidence and positive relationships, while working up to the season’s goal of running a 5K. The program will begin in early September!
This organization is entirely volunteer-run, and there is a $10 participation fee. If your daughter is interested in participating, you can register on the Dayton Girls on the Run website http://gotrdayton.org/. Please note that when registering online, you'll be asked if you want to apply for a reduced registration fee. Answer "yes" to this question so that you can take advantage of the EXTREMELY discounted rate. Please be advised that the "Payment Summary" will at first show the full fee of $150; however, you will have the opportunity to enter the fee you are able to pay. This is where you should enter $10. This should then change your payment summary to just show the $10 due (or $11.64 if you choose to pay by credit card, which includes credit card processing fees). Registration will close the first week of the 2018-2019 school year, so register NOW!

Student Withdrawls
The school's office staff would like to remind you that if you are moving during the summer, or your child will be changing schools, please be sure to formally withdraw them from Holliday or the West Carrollton district. There is paperwork that needs to be completed before you can enroll your child in a new school or district. Completing the paperwork as early as possible will help expedite getting their records to the new school and allow us to make more accurate classroom lists for the beginning of the school year. Thank you!
