A message from the principal...

Welcome to Holly Springs-Motlow Elementary School!  Along with being named a Palmetto’s Finest and Exemplary Reading School, Holly Springs-Motlow is also a STEAM accredited institution. Additionally, HSM has been recognized as an Arts in Basic Curriculum Site and a Distinguished Arts Program school.
