In spite of an unseasonably warm winter that presented training challenges for all Snow Sports athletes, Holderness School is sending an unprecedented number of skiers and snowboarders – 26 in total – to national competitions this spring.

At Holderness School, students spent first half of March on Special Programs - a transformative 11-day period of growth, service, and adventure. It's a time when students leave the classroom and learn by doing. 

This month, Henniyah Rivers ’25 added to that reputation by competing in slalom and giant slalom for Jamaica at the World Junior Olympics in Gangwon, South Korea. In doing so, she became the first-ever female alpine skier to compete for Jamaica in an international competition.
 

We are pleased to announce that two Holderness students, James Bae ’26 and Samantha Zhang ’25, have received honorable mentions from the annual Scholastic Art Awards of New Hampshire.
