About Holmes Academic Services, LLC
Core Belief:
We believe in the sustainability of school and district leaders by not just filling gaps—but by transferring knowledge, tools, and systems that empower teams to thrive independently, long after our direct support ends.
Janine Holmes, PhD Founder/CEO

Dr. Holmes is a certified educator with teaching and school leadership credentials from the Louisiana Department of Education.
