Patterson Families,
We had an exciting week at Patterson!
Our second year of Planting Day in our Patterson Community Garden was once again extremely successful! Please ask your child what their grade planted and how they helped. If anyone is interested in helping to maintain the garden, you can help out during Summer Blast Wednesdays from 10-12 pm. We look forward to August when we can enjoy the Market Day products made straight from the garden. Thank you Miss Marion and the numerous behind the scene helpers!
We held our last Character Trait Assembly on Wednesday. Congratulations to all of the students that have earned the Kindness Award throughout the school year!
As the week wraps up, all students have completed their third set of Math and Reading i-Ready Assessments for this school year. Teachers have begun celebrating the growth students have made during Grade Level Data Meetings. They look forward to sharing the data with their students as they wrap up their data binders for the year.
Next week we look forward to our Attendance Assembly!
Enjoy your weekend!
Mrs. Kraemer

Student Physicals
On June 7th, the high school team physician Dr. Larry Baylis and his staff will be at Holly High School. On this day, students will be able to get a physical for the low price of $15. Physical day begins at 4pm. An end time is not set, as that is dependent on how many students sign up for a physical. If you would like to schedule an appointment close to the start time, make an appointment soon. If you would like a late afternoon time slot, make your appointment later this month. We will "sell appointment times" until June 5th.
The process:
1. The student or a parent should stop in the HS main office (8am-3pm), the MS main office (8am-3pm) or the athletic office (9am-3pm) with $15 to purchase an appt. time. A great time for HS students to make an appointment is during their lunch hour. Appointments cannot be made over the phone as payment is due when you schedule. We will accept cash or a check made out to Holly Area Schools. A receipt will be issued when payment is made.
2. When you submit payment, an appointment time will be assigned and an appt. card will be stapled to a physical form. Both sides of the form must be completed PRIOR to your June 7th appointment. Parents, please double check the form, make certain ALL info is filled in and all signature lines are too. The only portion that you may leave blank will be the section Dr. Baylis will complete.
3. On June 7th, arrive at Holly HS for your appointment. Be on time or even early. Do not be late.
Reminder, the middle and high school offices are open Monday-Friday, from 8am until 3pm; the athletic office usually from 9am until 3pm. (Occasionally events take us out of the office, for example all day May 16 for the tennis regional.) If we have an evening event, the Athletic Director or Athletic Coordinator may be on site and can assist with scheduling an appointment in the evening. Call ahead should you wish to come to the High School some evening. At the HS, the best option is to have the athlete purchase the appointment time during their lunch hour.
If you have a question, please contact the athletic office at 248-328-3247. Remember, if you want a physical appointment close to 4pm, schedule now. If you want a late afternoon appointment, schedule later this month.
