Last Day of School Information
To our incredible Hygiene mothers,
As Mother’s Day approaches, I want to take a moment to recognize and celebrate each of you. Thank you for the love, care, strength, and endless encouragement you pour into your children every single day. The gifts and gems your children bring into our classrooms are reflections of you — your kindness, resilience, humor, creativity, and heart. We are so grateful that you trust us, as educators, to partner with you in helping your children learn, grow, and shine.
This Mother’s Day feels especially meaningful to me personally as I prepare to watch my own youngest child walk across the stage at Silver Creek High School in just a few short weeks. It has caused me to reflect deeply on how quickly these years pass and how much of motherhood is made up of quiet sacrifices, cheering from the sidelines, helping with homework, wiping tears, celebrating victories, and loving fiercely through every stage. Mothers truly help shape the foundation of who children become.
Please know that we see the countless ways you support your children and our school community. Your partnership, encouragement, and trust mean more than words can express. Thank you for sharing your children with us each day and for allowing us to be part of their journey.
Wishing all of our Hygiene mothers a beautiful Mother’s Day filled with love, appreciation, and the reminder that the work you do matters deeply.
With gratitude,
Renee Collier
Principal, Hygiene Elementary

Last Day of School Information
Last Day of School – May 21st and Important Detailed Information for families: The last day of school is 3 weeks away. Here are some important details about the last day:
- We will start the day with Games Day for K-5th grade in the back field. This event will go from 9:30-11:00 am. Families are welcome to attend.
- At 11:00 am, students will relax with their class in the shade and have a popsicle provided by our PTO to cool down.
- At 11:30 am, all students will come into the building one final time to be with their teachers and have a final classroom closure before ending the year. This should only be time with your students.
- At 12:00 pm, our All School Picnic will begin in the south side Hug n Go area. All classroom teachers will escort their students outside for a final picnic that includes family and friends. Teachers, you are responsible for making sure that students are safe and eating with the class or families if they choose to come. Sack lunches will be provided for the students. Families are free to set up a picnic spot when dropping off their child. We will also have Kona Ice here for purchase.
- We will stay out there for approximately one hour. All students who leave the school must be checked out by the classroom teacher.
- Those students who stay for the day can come back into the building with the classroom teacher.
- It should be a great way to start our summer. After the picnic, parents are welcome to take their child home after communicating with the teacher.
- Any student who goes home with another student must have prior written permission.
