Where We Are:

The history of our school:

Holmes School was named after George Holmes who was in the real estate and investment business and also the president of the First Trust Company bank in Lincoln. The city bought five acres of his land to build a school and he gave them another five acres to be used as playground area. The school occupies the place where his childhood farmhouse and barn once stood.

Holmes School was started in 1937. It had only three teachers at first. Later, two additions were built on. The enrollment this year is around 490 students.

Holmes School is located at 5230 Sumner. The best way to reach our school is to come down either 48th or 56th Streets and turn onto Sumner. BryanLGH East Medical Center is one block directly to the west of our school.
