School Reviews
| 5 Both of my grandsons went to Holcomb Bridge. The eldest now attends Centennial High School. Great school, low teacher/student ratio and excellent parent involvement. Our family bought a home specifically to be in HBMS district. - Posted by Parent - janda |
| 5 It's a good school. I am personally a student, and although some school policies are ridiculous, it is better than the majority of the ones in Georgia. - Posted by Student/Alumni - cryst |
