"In only two short years, Principal Holbrook has fostered a positive school culture for all students, families and staff so that they feel welcomed, valued and have opportunities to thrive. Perhaps most notable is that fact that, as a fluent Spanish speaker, Mr. Holbrook can directly connect with the Latino community.
Under his leadership, Armistead Gardens is leading the district in math proficiency and is 15th in the district in reading, which is even more impressive when you consider 43% of his students are multilingual learners. The Heart of the School Awards was created in 2016 to celebrate Baltimore City Public Schools' Principals and recognize exceptional leadership.
This annual event is hosted by the Fund for Educational Excellence, in collaboration with Baltimore City Public Schools and with the support of a number of business, foundation, and community partners. www.heartoftheschools.org"
