Get to know Holmes
We have taught agriculture from our beginning.
Ninety-eight years ago, in 1922, Holmes County Agricultural High School added two years of college work to their curriculum. The school was so successful, it became a full-fledged two-year college, and Holmes Junior College was born in 1925. We’re ready to put our experience to work for you. Come find one of our cutting-edge ag programs that we’ve honed over the years.

Agricultural Science is a part of the STEM pathway, meaning it is a degree based on science and math. Farming is more than plants and animals, however. Holmes also adds business courses including economics and accounting, so you are prepared to run your own agriculture business.
