HOLUM EDUCATION CENTER

Holum Education Center is a public prekindergarten school that is part of the De Forest Area School District school district, located in De Forest, WI with about 302 students. With about 2 teachers, Holum Education Center has a student/teacher ratio of about 151:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

The Holum Education Center, located in DeForest, Wisconsin, serves as a specialized facility within the DeForest Area School District. Unlike a traditional K-12 campus, the center acts as a hub for district-wide administrative functions and alternative educational programming. It is designed to support the specific needs of the community by providing a centralized location for district operations and professional development, ensuring that the broader school system runs efficiently and effectively.

In addition to its administrative role, the Holum Education Center is integral to the district’s commitment to diverse learning pathways. The facility often hosts programs that cater to students who may benefit from non-traditional academic settings, such as virtual learning initiatives or specialized support services. By housing both staff resources and unique educational opportunities, the center plays a vital role in maintaining the DeForest Area School District’s mission to provide comprehensive, student-centered learning experiences.
