Welcome from our Elementary Principal
Welcome to Holdingford Elementary School PreK - 6th grade. I could not be more proud of our staff, students, families, and communities. I absolutely love being a Husker and your elementary principal. Our number one priority is creating a safe school where every child can learn, laugh, and grow. Their success is our success and happiness. We take pride in cultivating strong literacy and math foundations that help all children learn across all subjects, from music, physical education, and art to social studies and science. Our dedicated and highly qualified staff use best practices and a comprehensive MTSS system of support that ensures each student receives the academic and behavioral resources they need to thrive. At Holdingford Elementary School, we cultivate a positive and inclusive learning environment with consistent expectations throughout the building. Our Husker High Five: Be ready, respectful, and responsible everyday, everywhere helps guide Husker kindness, our Husker manners, our Husker helpful hearts, and paves the way to building strong Husker character. Together, we are building a strong foundation for lifelong success! Husker family is forever, because we are better together!
Sincerely,
Jim Stang, Elementary Principal
