The mission of the Holy Hill Area School District is:

In addition to hosting a fun fifties night for all, HHOPS also ran an online auction the week leading up to the Sock Hop. Thank you to all dance attendees and all bidders in the auction. HHOPS met (and exceeded) its goal.

Results from Regionals were made available at the beginning of the month. Four projects went to State NHD and three alternates were named. Of these, one project placed third, making them an alternate for the National competition: The Ann Putnam Witch Trials by Liv T., Loren H., and Sara G. Congratulations to all! Additionally, Lauren M. received a Special Award for American History of Labor Movement!

State Qualifiers:

This month our School Nutrition Teams were recognized for their part in ensuring a successful day at school for our students. This team has offered breakfast, grab-and-go, and lunch for students, but since the pandemic, has also packaged meals, delivered meals, and supported field trips. They also make sure that when students are at home, the staff team has a healthy breakfast so that we can actively engage in learning! Thank you for all you do to help us come to work/school ready to serve/learn! You definitely earn the "Breakfast Hero Award!"

A special thanks to outgoing Board Members Chad Gartzke and Stephanie Bunton whose leadership helped to guide us through consolidation and the pandemic. The two served since 2016, and 2017 respectively, beginning their tenure as board members in the parent districts of Richfield (Gartzke) and Friess Lake (Bunton). Both have taken turns serving as President and Vice President since the consolidation in July 2018.

Marcus Packard and Blair Rogacki took the oath of office and were certified as the newest members of the Holy Hill Area School District School Board on Monday, April 25th. Their terms run through April 2025. They round out our new board, pictured below.
