Hello Holland Elementary Parents,
Our final day of school will be an early dismissal on Tuesday, June 13th. Until then, the students will continue to work hard as there still many tasks to complete and concepts still to learn. I encourage parents to remind their children to stay focused, work hard, and finish the school year strong!
HES Proud!
Fourth Marking Period Report Cards
Report cards will be released to the Home Access Center (HAC) at 4:00p.m. on Tuesday, June 13th. Students will also come home with a hard copy of their report cards on this final day of school. Please keep in mind that teacher assignments for the 2017-18 school year for all students will be available in HAC in late August.
IMPORTANT Immunization Requirement Changes for the 2017-18 School Year

This change impacts all schools in the state, not just those in Council Rock. The letter at the link below explains these changes. Please contact our school nurse with any questions related to these changes. Immunization Letter May 2017.

HES Students in Local Performance
Join The Pennsylvania School of the Performing Arts as they celebrate 21 years of excellence. This year's inspiring show will pay tribute to some of their favorite Broadway musicals including Newsies, Matilda, The Phantom of the Opera, and more as well as take you on magical adventures with interpretations of love and hope through the eyes of a child. Many students from CRSD will be performing in this show, including several from our very own HES. In preparation for the show, some of these students even had the opportunity to work with Michael Rios, a cast member of Newsies on Broadway who also appeared in the Disney movie that was recently released. A family friendly event, this show is a great way to experience the arts right here in our own neighborhood. Shows are at Bucks County Community College on Saturday, June 10 at 1:30 pm and 5:30 pm, and Sunday, June 11 at 1:30 pm. Tickets can be purchased at http://pspastudios.tix.com.
