Hello Husky Nation! As you have probably heard by now, we are going to be checking everyone's temperature prior to entering the building start this Monday. I want to thank you for your patience as we get this started.
Here are the steps for entrance:
Car Riders & Walkers - All temperatures will be checked on the curb under the covering before the parent is allowed to leave. Any temperature at or above 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit will be referred to the nurse for a double check of temperature. If the symptom still exists, the student will be transported home.
Bus Riders & Bikers - All temperatures will be checked upon entry to the bus door or in bad weather, students will line up on a dot 6 feet apart in the bus loading hallway. Any temperature at or above 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit will be referred to the nurse for a double check of temperature. If the symptom still exists, the student will be transported home.
The Holt PTO has purchased 6 picnic tables to provide staff & students the opportunity for outdoor classroom space! However, they came unassembled. If you enjoy putting things together, would you please help us assemble these tables? Please review the available slots below and click on the button to sign up...Times are approximate...You may come when it is convenient during those slots, but it must be during school hours. When you arrive at Holt, please call the front office (479-527-3670) or ring the bell at the front door...you will not be allowed inside the school, but the tables will be brought outside the front doors and assembly can take place there...bring tools!

I wanted to update you on where we are with masks at Holt. We are doing a wonderful job so far those year! Adding the following is a step to make us healthier. The AR Dept of Health’s recommends that masks with valves are not allowed and single-layer neck gaiters or masks are strongly discouraged. Gaiters or single layer masks may be doubled to provide two layers of protection. We will be asking if there are two layers when we come across these which appear like a single layer. PLEASE know we have masks here if you need another option. Thank you for helping us stay healthy! Go Holt Huskies!

The Husky Nation Celebrates Today! Our very own Cheri DeSoto, 5th Grade Science teacher, was recognized as a 2018 state finalist for the Presidential Award for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching, in front of the State Board of Education today in Little Rock! Mrs. DeSoto’s husband Joe and children Trusten & Nicole along with Maddie, Trusten’s fiancé, were all there to support her! Mrs. DeSoto is in her 26th year of teaching! She began in West Fork Elementary and then moved into Fayetteville Public Schools at Butterfield Trail Elementary. In 2015 she moved to Holt as the district realigned and continued to teach 5th Grade. If you step into Mrs. DeSoto’s classroom you will see engaged learners, discussion and exploration of science, scaffolded instruction, and for sure hear the letters ONSC. She is team player and public servant that is a joy to work with each day!
So proud of you Mrs. DeSoto!
