My child has enjoyed sports offered at the school as well as his education. Every teacher, staff member, and coach we have interacted with has been encouraging, helpful, and easy to get in touch with when needed. The education he is receiving is what I believe to be the same or better than other schools in the area(he transferred into the school from a neighboring middle school and had some catching up to do). Overall our family is very pleased with Holmes.

I am a current junior at John M. Morehead High School and I give this school 3 stars. The school has prioritized its student athletes and more wealthy students over all other students. However, the school has recently shifted some of its focus on its art programs. They are beginning to offer introductory instrument and band courses (and in the past those have only been available to those already having taken the band courses in middle school). Moving on to teachers, oh what I have to say about the teachers!! In my freshman year, I had to take a recovery math credit course and i was absolutely horrified, but I am so glad to say that I had one of the greatest teachers there could ever be. Though the class was full of us apathetic students, she showed us that SHE cared and that she wanted US to care. She gave us all the tools possible to succeed in her class and she gave us the foundation for the rest of our high school education and beyond. I came into that class having less than the knowledge of sixth grade math and came out with 9th grade math skills. I also I had an English teacher that year with the same excellence. He provided a comfortable and safe learning environment cushioned with humor, kindness, and encouragement. Also he introduced us to some cool texts like Poe's The Cask of Amontillado. Then there is the Latin teacher who constantly tried to keep the class engaged with interesting Latin stories ranging from Romulus and Remus to Aeneas and Dido. Also if you showed an interest in the subject, all the work you could ever ask for would be at your fingertips. In conclusion, though i give the school 3 stars due to its unfair interest in student athletes and wealthier students, I give its teachers 5 stars!!

I love Leaksville-Spray Elementary School. My family moved to Eden from Raleigh last year, and the teachers and Staff welcomed my children my husband and I with opened arms. We love all of the teachers and staff at LSE but We will never forget Mrs. Limer, Mrs. Bray, Mrs. Washburn, Mrs. Dalton,Mrs. Boyd and Mrs. Beckett. I have four children who attend LSE and their first year was an easy transition, thanks to the dedication of the teachers and staff. They made us feel right at home and ensured my husband and I that the kids would be receiving the best possible education, which I can assure you has been proven true. My kids LOVE LSE, and so do I.

Having come from a traditional school environment, I find this school to have a much better attitude and approach to education.
