Principal's Message

Dear Holmes Community,

I have been the proud Principal of Holmes Elementary School for 9 years.    I absolutely LOVE our school family and community.  

Prior to coming to Holmes, I was an Assistant Principal for 6 years in the Kyrene School District.  I was also a classroom teacher for 13 years.  I have taught students of all ages K-5 and will always be a teacher at heart.  I received my Master's degree from NAU and my Bachelor's from Park College in Kansas City, MO.  I absolutely love working with people and working with children fills my heart with joy each and every day.  I believe ALL children can learn and I will do everything I can to guide students in the direction of their DREAMS!

I've been married to my best friend for 32 years, and together we have 3 children.  Our kids are 29, 27 and 23 years old.  Two of them are in college, 1 in grad school pursuing their dreams.  We have 3 dogs which complete our family.

When I am not working, I love to spend time with my family, go to the movies, shop with my daughter, and spend time with my fur babies.

I absolutely LOVE my job and going to work every day!  I am a life-long learner and will continue to learn with my staff, colleagues. 

I am committed to working together with the staff at Holmes in providing a quality education, a safe environment to learn in and meeting all the individual needs of the children at Holmes.  We value parent partnerships and want to work as a team to educate your children making all their DREAMS come true! 

Sincerely,

Heidi Williams
