Campus

A modern two story building on a 40-acre (160,000 m2) campus houses grades 10 through 12, with Brian Templin serving as the school's principal. The 9th Grade is housed in a separate 9th Grade Campus. The high school includes 11 Computer Labs, an Internet/research center, computers with Internet access in each classroom, building wide broadcasting capabilities, a Performing Arts complex with an 850-seat theater and comprehensive on-grounds athletic facilities. Outside the school there is a large Football Stadium, Baseball field and a Cross Country course that are used often in sporting events throughout the year. The building is the largest one in the Holt School District, however, the administration of the District reside across the street in a separated "Ninth Grade Campus."

The building is very expansive, consisting of two floors and a basement. The building is renowned for its cleanliness and elegance, which are due to the fact that it was only recently constructed in 2003. The School Cafeteria is located in the middle of the building, juxtaposed to the Auditorium, and two lunch periods are held each day of the school year on which there is lunch. A Lunch takes place before a student's fourth period class, while B Lunch does not occur until after fourth period.

The Cafeteria of Holt High School is located in the direct middle of the establishment.

The Margaret Livensparger Theater is used to host many activities in the school such as talent shows, graduations, and plays. It's two level seating is accessible on the second story on either side of the foyer.

The library in the school is named after a former student, "John C. Chi", who died shortly after graduation in 1975, but was noted for both academic and athletic achievements. The library is equipped with thousands of books and a fleet of computers available in conjunction with those of the Computer Labs. The Library plays host to Parent-Teacher Conferences every Trimester.

The Computer Labs in Holt High School were disliked by most of the School's population for their outdated software and operating systems, as well as their technical fallibility and constant crashing. Late in the 2008-2009 school year, they were upgraded to new computers, although there are not any pictures available to show them.

Adjacent to the Cafeteria is a "School Store", operated by students enrolled in certain Business courses. It sells snacks as well as clothing pertaining to school spirit.

Holt's School Store is located in the cafeteria.
