GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

We are a very close school although our students are very active in the community. We have an excellent set of athletes and we are all very proud and upbeat when it comes to us playing and our victories. This is a very small school so many people are very close and that's what makes us a good school; we are protective of our school and people since we are family. Our overall scores on leap and and finals are fantastic we are known to have one of the best academics in Livingston Parish.

From the schools in my area, my parents chose to send me to Holden because of their amazing academic focus. There are many helping options for students that need it and there are numerous higher level classes for those that want to take them. I'm very happy my parents sent me here

The small amount of students in the school allowed to maximum communication, instruction, and transmission of knowledge from teachers. Teachers genuinely care about their students' progress and understanding which will aid them in their future careers and achieving success.

Holden school has completely transformed my child. He entered pre-K as a non communicative child with some real concerns. He loved going to school, and really adored his teachers..he is now flourishing, and amazing in his first days in Kindergarten.

This school for the most part is good, but is not great. First of all, I would like to say that most of the teachers are good but there are many that I've had that do not teach at all and do not belong in a certain grade or teaching in general. Second, the homework given is not that bad but can some...
