Welcome to Holmes Elementary School

Welcome Message from Principal Geraldine Petrizzi

It is with pleasure that I welcome you to Holmes School and the start of the 2009-10 school year.  It has been a busy and exciting time for staff and our 483 students in kindergarten through fifth grade as we settle in for a new year of academic challenge, enrichment, and social experiences.

The staff at Holmes School brings a wide-variety of experience and differing expertise to educate each child.  Classroom teachers work collaboratively with reading specialists, special education teachers, and many support staff to ensure that each child will achieve his or her full potential while developing a strong academic foundation and a love of learning.  Together, we are dedicated to providing an academically challenging and motivating program for all students.
