Holden

Holden Cowell was born on October 11, 2007, to Brandon (Jordan) Cowell and Megan Williams. He has three siblings: Gauge and Gracie Williams, and Connor Joplin. Holden’s favorite teacher is Mrs. Newell because “she was always patient with me and pushed me to be the best I could be.” If he had to describe himself in three words, he would choose hardworking, dedicated, and outgoing. If he could travel anywhere in the world, he would go to Mexico because he enjoys having fun there.

As a child, Holden dreamed of becoming an NBA player. Now, he plans to work hard, build a family, and create a life with financial freedom. His advice to underclassmen is simple: “Just push yourself or find someone who will.” When asked how he feels about graduating, Holden shared that he is excited. He will miss Mrs. Newell and raiding his mom’s snack drawer. The person who has had the greatest influence on him is his mom, stating, “She has always believed in me and supported me in whatever I chose to do.” Holden considers graduating from high school to be his greatest accomplishment so far.
