Academics
Keeping with Mrs. Holton's vision, Holton is a school that is filled with the joy of learning.
Academic excellence is a unifying, cross-generational theme of the Holton experience. A Holton student has a proclivity to set a high bar in all of her endeavors, including and most especially in what she sees as her impact on the world.

Learn Well, Live Well, Lead Well
To learn, live, and lead well, Holton students seek to understand themselves and others, build healthy relationships across similarities and differences, and develop the skills, knowledge, and habits of mind to make the world a more equitable, sustainable, just, and peaceful place.
All studies are global
At Holton, students have opportunities to encounter and engage with the world's cultures, community, people, and ideas, via technology, research, travel, and more. Beginning in Middle School, students have the opportunity to travel abroad, and Upper Schoolers can apply for a Global Scholar distinction at graduation.
Student Support
The Student Support Team–comprised of a range of administrators, including counselors, the school nurse, and learning specialists–believes in a collaborative approach to supporting students. Members of a student’s team offer individual attention as she moves through the stages of academic, physical, and social-emotional growth.
