Dear Holt Public Families and Friends,
Welcome to a brand-new school year!
The first day of school, Wednesday, August 20, marked more than just the start of a new academic calendar. It is the beginning of an exciting new chapter for our learning community as we open the doors to the brand-new Dimondale Elementary School and welcome its very first class of students!
There is something special about the energy of a new school year, fresh school supplies, new friendships, and the promise of discovery and growth. But what truly makes Holt Public Schools shine is the strength of our community and our unwavering belief that everyone belongs here.
At Holt Public, belonging isn’t just a goal; it’s who we are. Every student, every staff member, every family, you belong. Our educators, staff, and administrators are deeply committed to creating a welcoming, inclusive environment where every student feels seen, heard, valued, and supported.
As we kick off the 2025–26 school year, our focus remains clear: to provide a safe, supportive, and inspiring learning experience for all. Thank you for your continued support, partnership, and trust. Together, we are building a future where every child has the opportunity to thrive.
We encourage you to stay connected!

Be well, and Go Rams!
