Immunizations required to enter 7th grade
Dear Parents/Guardians, Today, Wednesday, May 28, there was a state-wide issue with the NC Testing Program that prevented students in grades 6th and 8th from completing their ELA EOG. Due to this interruption, we have updated our testing schedule as follows: Updated Testing Schedule: Thursday, May 29: Sixth and eighth grade students will resume their ELA test from where they left off. ⚠️ If your child is absent on this day, they will have to make up the test next week and may have to start over from the beginning. Friday, May 30: 7th Grade ELA EOG will be administered. Monday, June 2: 6th & 8th Grade Math and Math 1 EOC will be administered. Tuesday, June 3: 7th Grade Math will be administered. Important Reminder: Please make every effort to have your child present on their testing days. Missing a test could mean taking it on a make-up day, which might interfere with End-of-Year activities. If you have any questions, feel free to call the school at 623-9791. Thank you for your understanding and continued support!

Updates for 5/12 📣 Exciting Updates from Our Mustang Family! 🐴✨ 🌸 Happy Mother’s Day to all our amazing Holmes Middle School families! 🌸 Today, we celebrate the love, strength, and support you give each and every day. Whether you're a mom, grandma, guardian, or mother figure—you make a world of difference in the lives of our students. Thank you for all you do! 💐❤️ 👏 Huge thanks to our amazing BETA members for helping make Field Day at Central Elementary safe and fun! 🎉 You all did a fantastic job representing Holmes with leadership and spirit—we’re proud of you! 🌟💙 Cafeteria Reminder: 🍽️ Please help us take care of our cafeteria by following these simple guidelines: ✅ Do not kick the legs of the tables — they are sensitive and can break easily. ✅ Keep the area clean — throw away your trash and help keep our space nice for everyone. ✅ Be kind — to each other and to our school property. ✅ Do not shake the tables or pull bolts out of the stools — this damages the furniture and creates safety hazards. We appreciate everyone doing their part to keep our cafeteria safe, clean, and welcoming! 💙 Bus Reminder: 🚌🚨 Transportation Request Time! 🚨🚌 The transportation request form for next school year is now live on our website 🌐. Even if your student is already riding the bus, we strongly encourage all parents to complete the form to avoid delays at the start of the year ⏳✅. Let me know if you have any questions!
