Holiday Park School
D. Gangloff: This is a wonderful school where all of the staff tries really hard to give our students a well rounded education. Our only down fall at this school is our over crowding of classes. Most of our 2nd grade classes have 30 or more students. Of course, this is due to our state budget and lack of funds. It is however, very difficult to meet all of the students needs when class size is this high.
