During the month of September, Holmes students focused on the character trait of RESPECT through weekly videos on the Monday school-wide announcements led by the school counselor. As a school community committed to respecting others, staff and students will wear the color YELLOW on Monday, September 28th.
The color that coordinates with each character trait will be worn on the last Monday of each month throughout the school year. Each of the color-coordinated traits are used within our character education program to help instill a positive school climate and a culture of kindness, making schools a safe environment for students to learn. We encourage our families to extend the program to discussions and activities at home as well because the more students hear about good character, the more important it will be.
