Holly Oak Elementary School
This is a good school with GREAT teachers, especially Ms. Battistella. She really goes above and beyond and is such a positive role model for kids. She implements healthy eating, exercise, and started a girls club where girls can get helpful advice and have a safe place to talk to someone.
