Welcome, and thank you again for visiting the Parent Information and Resource Center web page. My name is Tim Holt and I will be working in the Holton area with you, and the Holton School District.
I was born in Topeka, Kansas in 1965 and lived there until I was five years of age. My family then moved to northern Colorado where I was raised in a small town called LaPorte. I went to school in that area and eventually attended the University of Northern Colorado, in Greeley. I graduated with a degree in education in 1993 and was offered a job teaching secondary students in Cheyenne, Wyoming just across the Colorado border. I taught various subjects in social studies for five years, and was eventually elected to teach and facilitate the 7th- 9th grade Gifted and Talented program. I also mentored many programs having taken various classes in Conflict Resolution, and Drug and Alcohol awareness and prevention. I also coached several sports and helped sponsor an after school Kiwanis community service club. During this time, I also started and maintained a Saturday School Program for troubled students. During the summers I enjoyed working as a security officer and did a short exciting stint working security for the Denver Broncos.
I then moved back to Topeka and settled in Holton, Kansas. I live here currently with my wife and two kids. I have worked in several capacities for the school district, including substitute teaching throughout the district, and most recently tutoring at Holton Middle School. Finally, I also manage the City of Holton’s Municipal Pool and teach both swimming lessons to Jackson County students and residents in the summers, as well as Lifeguard Training and CPR/ First Aid.
I look forward to meeting you and hope this visit to our web site and my biography has been both informative and beneficial.
