My two sons graduated from Holtville High School as did I. One is now an anesthesiologist and the other son has a Phd. in Physics and Chemistry. Graduates of 2000 and 2002. Had it not been for the outstanding teachers at that time where oh where would they be. Mr. and Mrs. Williamson, Mrs. Steal, Cindy Veazy and many others were there for my children educationally and as close friends.
