Holly Moore

Social Worker Health Science & BCS

Hi I am the Case School Social worker for students 10th -12th grade. I have been at Case for 20 years. I received my undergraduate and graduate degree from UW-Madison. I am a Racine native and love the diverse population in Racine Unified Schools. I am passionate about helping at risk students overcome any barriers that may prevent them from graduating. I take pride in meeting each student where they are currently at in their life, withholding judgement of choices and situations. Outside of school I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling and keeping active.

Katherine Ballbach

School Psychologist

Hello, I am one of the school psychologists at Case High School. I am in my 16th year in RUSD (12th year at Case!). I earned my undergraduate degree in psychology at UW-Stevens Point, and my Education Specialist degree at UW-La Crosse. I was born and raised in Racine, and this community is important to me. I have worked at all grade levels, but high school has been my passion because it is so rewarding to watch students begin to take charge of their learning and development. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my husband and daughter. We love to hike, cook new things, and go new places to explore.
