Here at HOLLA School…

A child wearing a high-visibility vest smiles while sitting in a garden with green and red leafy plants. Other children are partially visible around, also wearing vests. The scene suggests a group gardening activity.

Our mission is to change the academic narratives of Black, Brown, and Indigenous youth!

Our Beliefs:

We believe that ALL youth are Abundant, Brilliant and Creative.

  • We believe in the power, potential, and worthiness of Black, Brown, and Indigenous youth, and recognize that it is our responsibility to create the conditions for their brilliance to shine.

  • We believe in the transformative impact of mentorship; the strength of connectedness to foster racial and cultural identity development, social-emotional well-being, collective problem-solving, and the liberation of mind, body, and spirit.

  • We believe in implementing a comprehensive and challenging curriculum, deeply rooted in both historical and contemporary socio-political lived experiences.

  • We are committed to applying critical, anti-racist lenses to our pedagogy, policies, and practices.

  • We believe in the intentional development of identity, skills, intellect, criticality, and joy, as advocated by Dr. Gholdy Muhammad.

  • We believe in centering love and compassion in every aspect of schooling.
