Holmes School

I was worried about my daughter moving in to this school district. She and I both have never been happier. There's so much going on for the kids.

Excellent school, staff all around, is going a outstanding job with the kids. Moving from West Hartford we had major concerns due to some bad reputations of the New Britain schools. However on the contrary we are having one of the best experiences. The principal show great leadership, motivates parents to get involved in the school and their kids life, she send out weekly phone messages, organizes other events to keep everyone involved. Needless to mention that she has a very good team to help her and support her, the teachers and the support staff is extremely great. I may add that my wife has over 15 years of European teaching experiences, and I have been also involved in different training and educations for about 10 years internationally, so we have a good understanding of the subject. I am highly recommending the school. Thank you very mush all and keep up the very good job.

Great experience here! Ms Hammer, 1sr grade, and Mrs. Bacho, reading interventionalist, were amazing and played a crucial part in the progress of my son. They were patient, persistent and supplied us as parents with the tools to support our son's progress in reading. Social workers were very nice and responded quickly to matters that of concern to me. Principal was welcoming and knew our son by name. School also had festive family activity nights that we really enjoyed participating in. A lot of oppertunities to stay involved for parents. Great over all experience:)

This school needs a new principle and social worker. They are the reason this school is horrible
