Don’t miss out on your child’s efforts all year long in class 

Parents and kids are invited to the

Hollywood School Spring Open House

Thursday from 7-8pm.

 

Thanks to all who have volunteered to bring treats,

but this year we decided to forgo the snacks to spend more time in the classrooms with our children. 

Hope to see you there!

R.B. Otters will be holding a 4-week Spring Clinic beginning May 11th at the new pool at R.B. high school. Otters is a swim team for school-age students. It’s a great opportunity to get back in shape for summer swimming. There will be two experience levels: NOVICE and EXPERIENCED. Each swimmer must also be registered with Illinois Swimming, Inc. ($60 fee payable to Illinois Swimming – good for 1 calendar year). For more information, see the registration form or the Otters’ website: www.rbotters.org.

Have you noticed all of the extra children frolicking in the halls of Hollywood?  Ms. Mathis had her students re-imagine themselves in the style of several famous artists.  Hollywood looks amazing with the art figures all around the school.  Ms. Mathis would like to recognize the volunteers that helped put up the, “Youth in Art” Installation.   It could not have happened without their help and hard work.  Special thanks to Mrs. Kierith Kurth and Mrs. Laura Meehan.
