HOLLEY HAWKS HAPPENINGS
Rodeo Day at MHE is Friday, May 10. The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo will come to Holley and present a variety of activities and guest speakers. Please dress your student(s) in their best Western wear, but make sure they are comfortable because they will be rotating through stations throughout the day.

This event is for students only. We will include pictures in the newsletter for parents to enjoy.
Parent Volunteers are Needed for the District SEPAC Committee
Campus representatives for the Special Education Parent Advisory Committee (SEPAC) are needed for the 2024-2025 school year. SEPAC is a support network where parents can ask questions, meet other parents on the special education journey, and learn about relevant issues in the state and district that pertain to educating students with disabilities. To inquire about being a SEPAC representative, please complete the SEPAC Application Form 2024-2025.
Join the SEPAC meeting on Wednesday, May 15 @ 6pm to learn more and meet other special education parents in FBISD.
