Changes on the Horizon...

Holtville High is preparing for the 2010-2011 school year already, and as we look ahead we want to share some of the changes we see on the horizon...

New Staff:
We will be welcoming at least two new teachers to HHS.
Mrs. Samantha Williams nee' Stacey will join our Math Department, and
Ms. Cynthia Lopez will join our English Department

New Assignments:
Mr. Queen will move from 9th Grade English to 11th Grade English,
Mr. Van Acker will move from 11th Grade English to 12 Grade English

New Class:
Every student will see a new class on their schedule this August. All students will have an Advisory period each morning from 8:00 to 8:13. This short class will be the home for all announcement, surveys, and will involve regular notebook checks and conversations about class and school concerns.

New Bell Schedule:
Classes will now begin at 8:00AM every day. This is five minutes earlier than in the past, so it will be an important change for students and families to get used to.

Congratulations to the Class of 2010


HHS bids a fond and sad farewell to our young men and women of the class of 2010. This remarkable group of ladies and gentlemen took a final walk across the field at Holtville High School's Jim Birger Field on Wednesday, June 9, 2010 and began the next part of their journey.

We wish them and their families all the best and want to express the deep joy we have felt in working with them for the past 48 months!

Good luck and great discoveries!
