Thank you to everyone who attended last week's PTO meeting! We had the most individuals in attendance in the last two years.
Purpose of PTO Meetings
The PTO meetings discuss a lot of important info, but it's also a place for us parents to engage, voice our opinions, and make each year better than the last for all of the students. Every person who attends a PTO meeting, with or without a specific title, is a part of our community and able to offer insight and guidance on how we feel things should be run. Every parent or guardian is considered a general member of our PTO and able to vote at our meetings. Your time is valuable and we truly appreciate you joining us!
Room Parent Interest
We have five (5) teachers who currently do not have a parent signed up to be their Room Parent. If you are interested in playing this part, please fill out the GOOGLE FORM or speak with your student(s) teacher. You can view the Room Parent General Guidelines English/ Spanish

Student/Family Directory Coming Soon
Holt is going to create a Student Directory for families, so students and parents are able to connect with one another. We will share paper copies by grade level. The directory will be sorted by classroom and will include: • Student name • Parent name • Parent email • Parent telephone number We already have on file any families who opted out of releasing Student Directory Information when you first enrolled. If there are families who would like to opt-out now, email principal Allan Chinn at chinn@4j.lane.edu by Oct. 31.
