Holt High School is a public secondary school in Holt, Michigan, United States. It serves grades 912 for the Holt Public Schools.[2]

Facilities

[edit]

The current Holt High School building opened in fall 2003, though the district itself opened around the 1920s. The architecture was meant to evoke the Collegiate Gothic style of Michigan State University.[3] It was designed by TMP Architecture.[4]

Athletics

[edit]

Holt has won a four state championships in Wrestling (1971, 1996, 1997, 2008).[5]

Ram Time

[edit]

Beginning in the 2024-25 school year, Holt added "Ram Time", named after their school mascot, the Holt Ram. It is a 30-minute time often used for academic work time and college prep. It has been met with heavy criticism from the student body, with a Change.org petition garnering over 250 signatures as of April 2025.
