~ SAAS was nAA 0ook0Idllk LII d IlIS1
school in Herkimer, N. Y.
Taught Science Courses.
So it was natural for Mrs. Hol-
ton, whose enterprising spirit
could not be satisfied with only
being housewife, to start a girls
school here with her friend. Caro-
lyn Arms. This they did in 1901,
with Miss Arms teaching English
and Latin and Mrs. Holton math-
ematics and science. Foreign
languages were taught by hired
teacher. Miss Arms retired from
the school in 1911 because of i'll
health.
Mrs. Holton was one of the first
leaders among private academy
heads to believe that girls could
do as we'll in mathematics and the
sciences as young men. She also
instituted a class in typing.
The educator was a firm believer
in the so-called conventional
school as against the progressive
school. She insisted on a classical
curriculum.
Schools Objective Cited.
The conventional school has al
ways insisted that certain things
must be got into the heads of boys
and girls in some ways" she ex-
planned recently. 1.-THE progress
sive school considers first the
wishes, the talents and the in
terestS of the individual. The
slogan of the conventional school
might be, We teach subjects; of
the progressive school. We teach
students.
Mrs. Holton believed strongly in
the value of the personal approach,
however, and kept the classes in
her school small.
Mrs. Holton founded the school
so years ago in her home at 1874
I street NV, but moved it soon
thereafter to a townhouse on Hill
yer place NV. near Dupont Cir
Gle. For many years it has been
on S street NV, with the main
building at No. 2125.
The school, enlarged through the
years, now includes primary
grades, high school and junior
college.
Twenty years ago, Mrs. Holton
turned over the entire property Of
the Holton- Arms School to a nom
profit organization, though she
continued to be the moving spirit
behind the school until her death.
Kept Interest in School.
Mrs. Holton had been in declin-
ing health for several years but
had kept an active role in the op-
Grafton of the school. From her
bedroom window on Phelps Place
she watched the building of new
gymnasium and activities building
for the school, the realization of
one of her Oldest dreams. The
building was completed last June
and Mrs. Holton, unable to be
present, watched the first class of
graduates stream out of the build
ing.
It was at that commencement
that the schools 50th anniversary
was observed. Mrs. Holton sent
to an alumnae luncheon at the
Sulgrave club a recorded message
of good wishes and thanks "to my
girls"
A native of Herkimer County
N. Y, Mrs. Holton was one of
the first woman students at Cor
nell University. She met her
husband. an instructor in science
there. He died in 1929.
They had no children, but as
one writer observed, she might
have said, "I had hundreds of
children-and all girls"
