Our student day starts at 7:20 am and ends at 2:20 pm. The best way to help your child learn is to make sure they are at school every day. When students miss school, come late, or leave early, it compromises the learning that is taking place.\u00a0We celebrate students who have 95 percent or higher attendance monthly. We also positively acknowledge students that improve their attendance monthly. Our goal is 95 percent or better attendance every School day.\n\nReading, writing, and math are essential skills for students at any grade level. MPS has excellent online educational resources<\/a> for students.\n\nParent involvement is essential to student learning. Mrs. Kelly, the Parent Advocate, supports by advocating for them and building positive relationships with members of the school community.\n\nSincerely,\n\nTayotis Caldwell\nPrincipal of Oliver Wendell Holmes School\nThere's no place like Holmes!<\/em>\n(414) 267-1300","_et_gb_content_width":"","_mc_calendar":[],"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-74","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mps.school\/holmes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/74","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mps.school\/holmes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mps.school\/holmes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mps.school\/holmes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mps.school\/holmes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=74"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mps.school\/holmes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/74\/revisions"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mps.school\/holmes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/6"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mps.school\/holmes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=74"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
