Each month we post the current House Point standings. You can check out the current standings here on the HOL Main Page. Remember that this changes on a regular basis, as points are submitted and approved., Here is what the Giant Hour Glass shows at this moment:
Graphic shows words "House Points" and direct underneath, from G to S are circles with the number of House points underneath the circle. Red circle with white 'G' - 45,926. Dark Gold circle with white 'H' - 40,189. Blue circle with white 'R' - 50,195. Dark Green circle with white 'S' - 46,221.
If you are just now finding us, HOLLERS is a fun club open to all the houses with something for everyone!! "HOOTS" are earned by completing activities. If you have earned the most HOOTS in a given month, you get the "HOOT award" added to your personal folder! People who are regularly active in HOLLERS are eligible to earn the "HOLLERS Award". Could that end up being you?
