School Overview

Holmes Elementary sits in the heart of Linda Vista and Clairemont Mesa, two established San Diego neighborhoods where families tend to put down roots and stay — and it's easy to see why when a school like this is in the mix. With English and Math scores in the 98th percentile statewide, Holmes is delivering genuinely exceptional academics in a community that feels more tucked-away and residential than the flashier parts of San Diego. Families who want a serious, high-performing elementary experience without the chaos of a more transient neighborhood will find a lot to love here.
