Speaking of Education

The Lake Holcombe School District recognizes that students learn in different ways and therefore provides a variety of educational programs and options to students developed and approved through the Board and the administration. 

The District's programs include a variety of opportunities using both on-site and distance learning. The availability of educational options varies depending on the school of attendance and individual student circumstances, and the District is frequently evaluating and updating its programs. Students and parents are encouraged to consult with the school administration to discuss programs best suited for them.
