The fifth grade leadership committee collected the food for the 2011 Holmes food drive.
March 2, 2011 is called Read Across America Day. March 2 is also the birthday of Dr. Seuss. If he were still alive he would have been 107 this year. The Cat in the Hat came to Holmes School and read a Dr. Seuss book to the kindergarten, first, and level 1 ELL students on Monday, February 28.
As the students walked into school on the morning of December 23, the last day of school before the winter break, they noticed two white swans sporting red bows walking around the inner courtyard. One of our third grade teachers had brought them to school from her farm. It made the day into an exciting adventure for everyone!
Fourth grade students get ready to leave Holmes School for a day at Heritage School.
Fourth graders at Holmes attended Heritage School in November and December. Each fourth grade class went to Pioneers Park which is where the schoolhouse was moved when the Nebraska State Fair changed locations. Most students dressed as pioneer children and took their lunch in a tin can. Various activities such as a spelling bee and a cursive writing lesson were included in the day’s activities.
Fifth grade leadership team members were in charge of helping almost 400 Holmes students with the October 19th student vote. Voting took place on computers in the media center and all votes were tallied electronically.
Superintendent of LPS, Dr. Joel, was one of the speakers for the Safe Walk Assembly held Wednesday afternoon, October 6. All of the students received a free t-shirt provided by FedEx and several students received prizes for creating the best safety posters.
Helen, a fourth grader at Holmes School, has won Lincoln’s Learn Not to Burn poster contest. She got to ride to school on a fire engine on the morning of Oct. 6. The whole school and Lincoln’s fire chief gave her a cheering welcome on her arrival. We are proud of you, Helen!
October 5 was the safe walk to school day at Holmes Elementary. All the students rotated through four stations to learn about safety issues. These kindergarten students are learning to use the school crosswalk safely.
Students from Union College could be seen on September 9 helping beautify Holmes School. They worked on cleaning up the flower beds in the front of the school and adding new mulch. We very much appreciate the time and effort they gave to help make our school more attractive.
