The Holloway difference

Three commitments that shape every day here.

01

Taught by mentors

Teachers know every student by name. Advisory groups of eight meet daily, so no one moves through Holloway unseen or unchallenged.

How we teach
02

Rigor with range

A classical core in the lower grades opens into honors, advanced studies, and independent projects students design themselves.

03

Character first

Service, athletics, and the arts aren't extras — they're where students practice courage, teamwork, and showing up for one another.

Life at Holloway
Classroom · seminar discussion
Academics

From first letters to final theses.

Our program grows with the student — playful and hands-on in the early years, increasingly self-directed by graduation. The throughline is the same at every age: ask good questions, defend your thinking, do work you're proud to sign.

  • LowerK–5 · Literacy, numeracy, and inquiry in homeroom classes capped at 16.
  • Middle6–8 · Departmentalized study, a maker lab, and the first independent research project.
  • Upper9–12 · Honors & advanced tracks, senior capstone, and college counseling from grade 9.

Holloway didn't just get our daughter into a great college — it taught her to be the kind of person teachers fight to write recommendations for.
