Hello. This year West Holt activities will be Live Streamed on Hudl TV, especially when we play at home. If you go to our website there will be a hudl tab and if you click on that a link will be there for you to click on and the West Holt page will pop up. Not All venues will use Hudl TV so when I get that information from other schools I will post that. If you have any questions please contact the school. Thank You

West Holt now has a new phone system that will allow a dial by extension after hours, and voicemail will go to teachers emails as audio files. Please note the extension of each teacher has been added to the staff list on the website at https://www.westholtps.org/staff. Please take advantage of this feature, rather than contacting teachers at home after hours. Have a great school year!
