Worst school my child ever attended. School is also very much behind academically. They do not offer any challenges for the children that are somewhat ahead or 'bored'. I am planning to have my child either enrolled in a private school or the yearound school next school year.

My children were former students at C.F Holliday and I am SO GLAD that they are now in a private school and not attending C.F. Holliday this year. My children were behind academically when they transferred to a private school from C.F. Holliday. Most of the teachers were great but some of them had

They seem to watch a great deal of pg rated movies instead of classwork. My children are so much happier now that they are not at C.F. Holliday anymore. I would not recommend this school to anyone who wants their children to succeed in middle school and beyond. Read less

I love Mrs. Hoskins (the principal.) I have found her to be very open and communcative. I also have liked most of the teachers -- with the exception of the 4th grade staff. I like the academic programs and how well they work with my daughter. The school has music, art and gym once a week - not great

I am a student at C.F. Holliday. I love my teacher, he is awesome. I really miss Mrs. Thiel. I also miss not having plays anymore like we used to when Mrs. Tobey was there. I have a lot of friends at C.F. Holliday. The Secretary is not very friendly to the students or their parents. I am a christian

Hi, I am a parent who has had one child go through CF Holliday and two more going through it now. I truly do believe that CF Holliday is a great school. All of the teachers that I have encountered have been very caring and concerned about my childrens education. As far as discipline I loved Mrs. Thiel,
... Read more the new Principal Mrs. Hoskins is very well too. granted she doesnt have Mrs. Thiels experience but that takes time as we all know. I can tell you this if you have a problem and you let Mrs. Hoskins know she will take action in a professional manner. I think Mrs. Henry is the greatest secretary I have encountered throughout the West Carrollton District she is very informed and always on top of everything. The only thing bad is the food which the school itself has no control over. Read less

This school is a good school. I may not be a parent, I am a former student. And I moved because of my dad's job. I have had nothing but positive experiences with C.F. Holliday. It is not different than any other school. True some children work better in different enviroments than others. But overall
... Read more I think the success depends on the mind set of the child. This school was the ground work for my success and I thank all my teachers for their work. I loved going there and miss it with all my heart. I am a good student. Mostly A's and some B's. And I work hard. So please I ask that you don't blame this school...for it is the best I have been to.

This school is ok, I would not say it is good! My child becomes easily bored with the material they are learning, and has learned more foul language and other bad things in a year than most would learn in a lifetime! Has come home crying because of being bullied both on the playground and the bus,

And I don't understand why this school unlike all the other West Carrollton schools doesn't do anything outside of school, such as skating parties and things to pull the kids together. Seems to be the only school in the area that doesn't do anything! I'm not very pleased with this school this year. Although their teacher does seem very good, I still don't see the overall school as 'good'! Read less
