Summary

Holliday Elementary is a PK-5 school in the small town of Holliday, Texas, serving 494 students as part of the top-performing Holliday Independent School District (Isd), which ranks in the 91st percentile statewide. The school consistently earns a 4-star rating and has shown a strong upward trend, reaching the 84th percentile in the 2025-2026 school year, with a low student-to-teacher ratio of 13.2:1 and only 23.28% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch.

Holliday Elementary stands out academically from nearby schools, particularly those in the Wichita Falls Independent School District (Isd). For example, in the 2025-2026 school year, Holliday’s reading proficiency rates (64-72%) and math proficiency rates (62-64%) far exceed those at Zundelowitz Elementary (23-33% reading, 20-38% math) and Fain Elementary (46-53% reading, 29-37% math). The school also achieves these results with efficient spending of $7,827 per student, significantly less than nearby schools like Cunningham School ($12,065). A compelling local rivalry exists with Bradford Elementary in the Iowa Park Consolidated Independent School District, where both schools trade top performances across subjects and grade levels.

Notably, Holliday Elementary has a particular strength in mathematics, with 5th-grade math proficiency consistently 15-30 percentage points above the state average over the last four years. However, the school shows areas for improvement: it struggles to serve its low socio-economic status students (ranking in the 46th percentile) and its gifted and talented students (also in the 46th percentile), suggesting that its high overall performance may not fully support these groups. The school has also made a remarkable turnaround from a low point in 2019, rebounding strongly to maintain high performance ever since.
