This is a great district to be a part of. Holly Elementary has dedicated staff that will help with children's needs no matter what. They offer early learning programs, which is a great benefit to get a heads up and prepare your child for Kindergarten. I've had two of my children through the early learning programs and love how the teachers work with my child and help with suggestions on what to do at home to improve in my children's learning.
