Principal's Message

Dear Holliman Families and Community,


The Rhode Island Department of Education has recently released the results of the 2024–2025 RICAS state assessments in English Language Arts and Mathematics. I want to take a moment to acknowledge the efforts of our students, teachers, staff, and families, and to share a brief overview of where we are and where we’re headed.

We are proud to share that Holliman made gains in several areas, which reflects the hard work of our students and the dedication of our educators. At the same time, we recognize there are areas where we still have room to grow. That honest reflection is part of our continuous improvement process.

Looking ahead, I am confident that our beautifully renovated learning environment paired with stronger student attendance will lead to meaningful growth in our 2025–2026 RICAS results. We are committed to using data thoughtfully to inform instruction, provide targeted support, and enrich student learning across all grade levels.

At Holliman, we are fortunate to have a team of skilled and passionate teachers, a caring and supportive staff, involved families, and most importantly, bright and capable students. When we work together, we create the conditions for every student to thrive academically and reach their full potential.

As always, thank you for your partnership and continued support.


Sincerely,

Dr. Cabana, Principal

Important Reminders Important Reminders

From Nurse Razza

Holliman is a peanut free school. We have many students with severe peanut/tree nut allergies.

From Dr. Cabana

Please continue to label your child's lunch boxes, water bottles, hoodies, etc. This is extremely helpful!


Attendance Matters! Please use the magnetic attendance trackers to keep track of your child's attendance in school.

Holliman Pride ~ School Spirit Fundraiser

Holliman is a school where student learning thrives and children feel good about the place they call their school. We believe that this is because of the incredible students that attend our school, the awesome staff who believe that relationships with students are key to optimal learning, and also the incredible support of our families. We could not engage in the wonderful learning opportunities and the fun things we do here without your monetary support. Please know that no amount is too small. Your ongoing support is truly appreciated.
