On Behalf of Rakendra Davis
Dear HMS Families, 
As we wrap up our final day of schooI, I want to share an important update. I will be transitioning out of my role as Assistant Principal at Holland Middle School at the end of this academic year.
It has truly been a pleasure and an honor to partner with you in your child's journey. Thank you for your trust, your support, and for sending the very best you had through our doors each day. Your children are bright, curious, full of personality, and capable of amazing things. They have made this work incredibly rewarding.
As Dr. Seuss said, "Do not cry because it is over, smile because it happened." I am smiling with a full heart, grateful for the memories, the lessons, and the laughter.
Although I will no longer be at HMS, I will still be around! Do not be surprised if you see me rolling through town on my orange scooter! I will always be cheering for this community and wishing all of you the very best.
With deep appreciation,Rakendra
