Holden Central Elementary School
Laura Colegrove: Prinicipal, teachers, and support staff are excellent! I feel priviledged that my children are able to attend a safe, clean, and nuturing environment that ensures academic success. The staff goes above and beyond to provide all the children educational opportunites on such limited funding. I would encourage all parents to find out just how little funding that is given to your children's school and break it down to what each child receives. You would be amazed! I think it's around $10.00 per student for the whole school year at Holden! Holden Grade is hands down the BEST school my three children have attended. Thanks to the staff at Holden Elementary for being the best at what you do!
