Holland is a neighborhood school where students, parents and staff know one another by name. Being a smaller school gives us the ability to help our students feel safe and supported.

• Parent and community involvement is strong in Holland. Many volunteers from both the community and surrounding neighborhood contribute their time in Holland each month. Our Partners in Education include: Southminster Presbyterian Church, Messiah Lutheran Church, Sunset Church of Christ, Brentwood Library and Rick's Automotive.
• Title I funding provides additional resources for teachers and students. Reading specialists work one-on-one with students and use the push-in model to assist classes with reading.
• We are a literacy model school with a full-time literacy coach to work with students and teachers. We use the Response to Intervention model to provide interventions before special education is considered. We have a schoolwide behavior program called Hawk P.R.I.D.E., which recognizes students for character traits they exhibit.
• Holland houses the district's program for students who are Deaf or hard-of-hearing (DHH).

Mission

Our mission is to provide the academic, social and emotional development of each child in a safe environment.

Vision

Our Holland learning community collaborates as productive, global citizens engaged in continuous learning.  We accept individual differences and foster meaningful and intentional relationships with learners, their families, and the community.

Collective Commitments

As a staff committed to excellence for all of our students, we will:

  Integrity, Dependable and Effort (Hawk P.R.I.D.E.)
