Its a great place to work. They have a great staff who all support each other and so caring and truly go above and beyond for each child. I think its truly one if the last small community schools with the old time feeling in the state... It's small size ensures that there is lots of one on one learning and the teachers can truly focus on more individual learning. If the ppl of holladay and the state are wise they will ensure they do everything in there power to keep the doors open and kepp each and every staff member there for a very long time....

Holladay School is like a great little private school hidden in the woods. The teachers are great and the principal goes above and beyond. Standardized test scores routinely show Holladay School well ahead of the pack.

Holladay School has an 'old fashioned' feeling. There are no major discipline problems and no violence or bullying. The students have a great sense of community and school spirit. The principal and staff are caring and instill wonderful values in all the students. My child is extremely happy at Holladay.

About the tests
