Welcome back to school! I hope that you and your child are ready to get involved in the many educational opportunities offered at Green Holly Elementary School.
Students in 3rd grade have the opportunity to participate in strings this year. Students in 4th and 5th grade can participate in Band or Strings. Students will meet 2 times per week for Band or Strings. Chorus is offered to all students in fourth and fifth grades as well. Chorus will meet 1 time per week. Students who wish to participate in chorus may also be in band or strings. In addition, students are expected to make up all missed assignments and practice at home. We will have two concerts this year. Concert dates will be forthcoming.
If your child is interested in participating in Band, Strings or Chorus, please fill out the google form below. Please complete the online enrollment form by Monday, September 9th. If you have questions or concerns, feel free to contact Mrs. Krause or Mr. Earley. We are looking forward to a great school year!

Character Trait of the Month - RESPECT
This month we are focusing on the trait of respect. Respect means responding with words or actions that show others they are important. Students will be given lessons on respecting themselves, others and the community. Please talk with your child about what respect looks like in each of those areas.
TAKE THE RESPECT QUIZ...
Are you a Respectful person?
True or False
I treat other people the way I want to be treated.
I am considerate of other people.
I treat people with civility, courtesy, and dignity.
I accept personal differences.
I work to solve problems without violence.
I never intentionally ridicule, embarrass, or hurt others.
**If you answered TRUE to all the questions then you are a respectful person
CHARACTER PROGRAM
Green Holly has a school wide character program. A different character trait is highlighted each month. Character lessons are taught monthly, to all grade levels. There's also an animal that represents each character trait. Students in grades K-5 may receive character awards at the quarterly awards assemblies. Please check out the character poster and help reinforce these traits at home.
