Welcome

Holm Elementary School is located in southeast Denver, adjacent to Hamilton Middle School. Presently we serve 483 students from Early Childhood Education (4 years old) through fifth grade. Class sizes range from 20 in primary to 27 in intermediate with 3 to 4 classes at each grade level.

We have continued to expand our commitment to second language learners with the addition of ELA-S(Spanish Language) classes in grades ECE- 5.   English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) classes are also available in all grades.

Holm School students continue to benefit from a diverse curriculum that includes vocal music, visual arts, physical education, and gifted and talented instruction.

A literature based language arts program that includes 3 hours of literacy instruction is the center of daily instruction. This program includes daily reading of high quality literature, small group and individual instruction and specific skills development. There is also a school-wide math instructional program with a curricular emphasis on concepts, rather than just computational strategies that is closely aligned to Colorado instructional standards and CSAP.
