We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Great School! much like a family! There will always be a friendly face to greet you! The resources are limited but that is ultimately out of the school's control!

From the schools in my area, my parents chose to send me to Holden because of their amazing academic focus. There are many helping options for students that need it and there are numerous higher level classes for those that want to take them. I'm very happy my parents sent me here

I do like my school,mostly because of the smallness. I love knowing everyone I see. I love being an active part in the school. I love having the chance to be recognized for any task you accomplish.

Second, the homework given is not that bad but can some...
