Field Day shirts are on sale now! This year, we're introducing a new twist: each homeroom within the same grade level will have its own unique shirt color. This change is designed to make it easier for students to identify their peers during competitions.
To streamline the process, the paper color of your order form will correspond to the shirt color. Order forms went home in the Hawkeye Tuesday, March 18. The colors are assigned as follows:
Specials Groups:
Group A: Green
Group B: Blue
Group C: Red
Group D: Orange
The $14.00 cost will include Kona Ice, so students won't need to bring separate money when May rolls around. Please note that we can only accept checks or exact change. Any additional amount will be gratefully considered a donation to the Field Day fund.
If you need an extra copy of the order form, click here (Instagram viewers, copy and paste): https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/19eGqISN8sTK6S0oarljn1zglLUmahwsdrf1At9vdr8U/edit?usp=sharing
If you have any questions, please contact Coach Walls. Thanks!

HSES celebrated Read Across America a few weeks ago and one of the activities students could participate in was Guess the Masked Reader. We wanted to thank the staff members who took the time to come up with a costume and book idea and then record the reading of the book. Thank you to the following staff members: Mrs. Byrd, Mrs. Earl, Ms. Winslett, Mr. Cozart and Mrs. Scott. The students had so much fun making their predictions!
This Friday, March 14, is your last chance to purchase a yearbook and hold on to those precious elementary school memories! Sales end that day and no extras will be ordered for sale at school. The cost is $35.00. Go to yearbookordercenter.com and enter the HSES school code 18538.
If you plan on going to the store this weekend, and are willing to pick up a donation to benefit Project Peru, our school would greatly appreciate it! See the flyer for more details. Thank you!

Just a reminder the Book Fair is open three more days! Parents, if you would like to come shop with your child, Mrs. Harbin arrives at school every morning at 7:15, so you may shop before class begins. You may also shop between 1pm-3pm, if you use a credit/debit card. We will close at noon Friday. If you want an easy way to give your child money to shop, there is a link below with directions to make an e-wallet. E-wallets are an easy way to load money on your child's account and you never have to worry about them losing cash or checks! However, we do still accept cash or checks made payable to Holly Springs Elementary. Thank you for your support of the media center fundraiser! https://drive.google.com/file/d/1D2yOyRwTcpoEkoMTCdXm43_PJJL56xbn/view
