Hello Holland Elementary Parents,
It’s been a wonderful summer so far, but at the MacClay household, we’re starting to rollback bedtimes in preparation for the start of the school year. Returning to an early wakeup isn’t easy, but I’ve found that my children are sending subtle hints that they’re looking forward to the start of school. Hopefully your children are eager for school to begin, and I’m sure that their enthusiasm will grow when they find out their teacher this week.

The Holland staff and I are looking forward to a wonderful school year. The partnership between families and the school is so important in providing fantastic opportunities for the students to learn and grow. We know that there will be individual and group successes each day throughout the year, and we hope that we provide a safe and fun environment for your child to enjoy coming to school each day.
On a personal note, I'm both anxious and excited about the start of the school year. I've tried to learn as much as I could about the Holland Elementary School community over the last few months, and I've felt nothing but warmth and compassion with each person I've met. My goal over the coming months is to personally get to know the students and their families. So, during the Meet and Greet activities, please feel free to come up and introduce yourself to me. If you've never seen me before, I'll be easy to recognize - I'll be the guy in a tie with a somewhat bewildered look on his face!
Best wishes for an enjoyable remainder of the summer with your children.
