Welcome to Holmes Elementary School

Welcome Message from Principal Geraldine Petrizzi

On behalf of the staff at Holmes School, I would like to extend a warm welcome to our students and families.  The 2008-09 school year is sure to be an exciting year for everyone!

Reopened in 1996, Holmes School’s enrollment has grown to 480 students in kindergarten through fifth grade.  Two portable classrooms were constructed this summer to expand our facility.  The general music and instrumental music programs are located in these classrooms.

Parents have frequently asked for effective ways to support math at home.  Ms. Kathy Schultz, previous Math Specialist and Assistant Principal at Holmes School, compiled this list of websites for this purpose.  Among them, you will find games, activities, and worksheets that make math fun, interactive, and challenging for students.
