Wednesday Parent-Teacher Conferences have been rescheduled
Parent-Teacher Conference Reschedule - Wednesday, February 12th
Dear Parent & Families,
Parent-Teacher Conferences
Due to the impending inclement weather forecast for Wednesday, February 12th, we have made the decision to reschedule our parent-teacher conferences originally planned for that evening. The safety of our students, families, and staff is our utmost priority, and we believe it is best to avoid travel during potentially hazardous conditions.
Though the impact of weather has not yet hit, we want to afford our teachers ample time to coordinate with families as facilitating these schedule changes can be a time-consuming process. We value our family partnerships and seek to provide a safe opportunity for school to parent collaboration on student progress. Teachers will be contacting families affected by the adjusted schedules as, again, the conferences scheduled for the evening of Wednesday, February 12th will be rescheduled.
High School Dance
As we look at maintaining safety for students and families, we regret to share that the high school Winter Festival Dance will also be rescheduled. A rescheduled date will be shared soon.
We understand this change causes inconvenience, and we appreciate your flexibility and understanding. We will continue to monitor the weather forecast and will communicate any further changes if necessary. Should weather impact our schedule on Thursday, a revised plan will be shared.
We appreciate your understanding.
Sincerely,
Trevor W. Ashcraft
Superintendent

Holton High School Art Show
Holton High School’s Winter Royalty Crowning was held on Friday, February 7. Taven Dick and Kaiya Taylor was crowned Royalty King & Queen. Congratulations to all of our candidates!
There are 17.3 million high school students in America and only 15,000 get picked to be a National Merit Scholar - the top 1% of the top 1%. We're proud to announce that Carter Colberg, senior at Holton High School, has received this honor. We look forward to hearing of his future successes.
After many years of dedicated service to USD 336, Karen Beightel has decided to retire! We are extremely excited to celebrate her while we anxiously consider how to fill such a pivotal spot on our district office team as the Human Resources/Payroll Director.

Some of our Tiny Paws wanted to cheer on the Chiefs as well -- "Go Chiefs Go!"
Our PreK teachers and paras planned fun Chiefs' activities during the last few days which included color football cheer sticks; red, yellow, white pom poms; and Mahomes headbands. They ended the week with an indoor "tailgate party" on blankets in the hallway eating hotdogs, chips, and juice (with the help of our kitchen staff and parent donations -- thank you). For more pictures, the teachers will be sending through the Remind app.

Parents and Families,
With the new Open Enrollment laws taking effect this school year, we recognize that a learning curve will accompany the many changes in the standard out-of-district enrollment policies.
This brief letter provides an overview of the policy that was approved in November 2023 and updated in November 2024 by the Holton Board of Education.
Should you have any questions, please reach out to the district office. We will be happy to provide any clarification.
Wishing you the best,
-Trevor W. Ashcraft
Superintendent
