A Holiday Note from the Principal:
Dear Hygiene Community,
As we approach the holiday season, I want to take a moment to extend my warmest wishes to each of you and your families. This time of year invites reflection, gratitude, and connection—and our Hygiene community gives us so much to be thankful for.
Each day, you entrust us with one of your most precious gifts: your child. We never take that responsibility lightly. Your children are kind, curious, resilient, and wonderfully unique, and it is truly an honor to learn alongside them, celebrate their growth, and watch them shine in their own special ways. They bring joy, laughter, and purpose to our school, and we are better because of them.
Thank you for your partnership, your support, and the trust you place in us. Together, we create a school community where children feel safe, valued, and inspired to be their very best.
As the holiday season unfolds, I hope your days are filled with peace, rest, and meaningful moments with those you love. May this time offer space to slow down, reflect, and enjoy the simple joys that matter most.
Wishing you a joyful holiday season and a restful break. We look forward to welcoming everyone back in the new year.
With gratitude and warm wishes,
Renee Collier
Principal, Hygiene Elementary
