Welcome to the Dawson High School – I’m Kelly Holt and it is an honor to serve as the principal at Glenda Dawson High School. Prior to being named principal in 2015, I served as the Associate Principal at DHS since its opening in 2007.

I graduated from Houston Baptist University with a bachelor’s degree in science. I completed my master’s degree at the University of Houston. My educational career is comprised of 15 years teaching experience in chemistry and 10 years in administration.

In my personal life, I love sports, outdoor activities and watching HGTV. When you see me at school or at an event, please come up and introduce yourself. I’m excited to get to know our Dawson families. My door is always open and I would love to meet you.

Dawson High School is an amazing place for students to learn and prepare for their future.  We are passionate about student academic growth, committed to excellence and devoted to our students. There’s no doubt the Dawson High School is the BEST high school in Texas!
