Quarter 4!



Faith Writing

We will be collecting faith writing pieces from students at the close of this year again. These faith writings will be stored in each child's cumulative folder. The writing prompt is quite open. Teachers can select a prompt that reflects learning experiences that have taken place in the classroom this year or a very general prompt. Length of the piece is open as well. The goal is that an HC graduate would receive these faith writings as a glance of their faith walk during their time at Holland Christian. 

Staff Meeting

Our next staff meeting is Monday, April 17 from 11:30-12:15. Let's meet in Emily's room again please. 

Parade Details

First and Second grade teachers, when you have time, could you please jot in the parade preference totals for your class on this doc to help us organize the parade during our staff meeting? 

Convocation

Will take place on May 17 @ 9:00. We'll receive more details forthcoming! 

Final Chapel

Will be a special one. We'll celebrate the legacy of Mrs. Smith and Mr. Harig starting at 8:30 on May 31. 3th and 4th graders will be joining us AND we'll "send off" our second graders. Parent board will be supplying us with a small treat afterward. 

Field Day

Parent Board is organizing our field day again. Buses will bring us to Sassafras Ridge and we'll hike it to the beach pond for our fun. Field day will run from 11:30-2:00 on Wednesday, May 31. I'll arrange the transportation for K & 1st with Rose.

Mentor Parent

Our goal and prayer is that every child and every family at Holland Christian would be known, nurtured and inspired. To that end, we are seeking warm and welcoming individuals or families who might be willing to serve as a mentor in their Forest Classroom for the 23-24 school year. Please see the list of needs that this role might encompass but is not limited to!

  • Host two play dates at a park, beach, or other location of your choice for one hour.
  • Attend the New Family Picnic in August
  • Attend Forest special events such as the Forest Family Night Hike
  • Willingness to share contact information with classroom families to receive questions, concerns, wonderings and feedback.
  • Connect with Miska as needs from families arise

If you’re interested in serving your child’s classroom community in this manner in the 23-24 school year, please email Miska at mrynsburger@hollandchristian.org
