Holden Elementary
The Elementary students actively participate in Reading, Writing, Science, Social Studies, Math and Physical Education. To further educational opportunities, students and parents also design “Independent Projects”. These supervised projects are one quarter in length and are usually led by a member of the Holden community who may have a talent to share. Current and past projects have included Carpentry, Piano, Photography, Poetry and Chemistry.
Physical Education takes advantage of the numerous hiking and camping opportunities present in the region.
