West Holt Elementary School will be celebrating Read Across America on Mon., March 2, 2026. Read Across America is a nationwide reading initiative in the United States that promotes children’s literacy and encourages a love of books.
We are excited to welcome the Class of 2039 to Kindergarten Round-Up! Be sure and sign up and receive all the reminders and mailings for this big day! March 11 @ 2:30pm we will have parents and the incoming kindergartners visit with Mrs. Frickel and Mrs. Roemer, Mrs. Larson and other support staff.
From Coach Moser:
We are SO proud of the Dance Team! 💛💙✨
Friday night, our talented dancers lit up the floor and brought home 4th place in both Pom and Hip Hop! 🏆🔥 Their energy, teamwork, and dedication truly shined in every eight-count.
From early morning practices to perfecting every move, these athletes have worked incredibly hard—and it showed! We couldn’t be prouder of the passion and heart they bring to our school.
Way to go, Huskies! 💛💙
