Today marks the end of the third marking period. The fourth marking period is a busy one with standardized testing and our end-of-the-year events. It is more important than ever to check with your Husky daily regarding work completion. We want everyone to finish the year strong! Dare to be remarkable!


The staff and Board of Directors wish you a peaceful and relaxing spring break. If you are traveling, please be safe. Enjoy the time with your Husky!

Mini Society Wish List

Holly Academy fourth-graders are ready to begin creating products for Mini-Society! This is an experience-based, economic education program in which students establish their own society, earn and spend their own money, and open businesses. Students decide on a product or service to sell in the classroom during market days. We would be grateful for any donations of materials to our “warehouse” as found on this Amazon Mini-Society Wish List:
