The word holistic means looking at the whole instead of just one part. Probably, a holistic score is a score based on multiple areas of assessment.
There is no hard-and-fast rule for "an" or "a" prior to a word beginning with "h", however the correct usage is "an holistic". See below for some examples of usage: an hotel an historian an holistic a hunter a holiday a human
it is a place
There is a difference of opinion on this. Some use "an" in front of certain words that begin with a non-silent "h", but others think it that there is no reason these words should be treated differently from other words that begin with consonants. That is, some would say "an historic" and "an holistic", while others think it is fine to say "a historic" and "a holistic".
You would say 'a holistic' because the initial consonant (h) in 'holistic' is pronounced. Compare to: a hat, a hospital, a horrible experience. Words starting with 'h' where the initial letter is silent are an exception to the general rule that you would only use 'an' if a word starts with a vowel. So the correct usage is: an heirloom, an hour, an honour.

Holistic education is a philosophy of education based on the premise that each person finds identity, meaning, and purpose in life through connections to the community, to the natural world, and to spiritual values such as compassion and peace. Holistic education aims to call forth from people an intrinsic reverence for life and a passionate love of learning. This is the definition given by Ron Miller, founder of the journal Holistic Education Review (now entitled Encounter: Education for Meaning and Social Justice). The term holistic education is often used to refer to the more democratic and humanistic types of alternative education. Robin Ann Martin (2003) describes this further by stating, "At its most general level, what distinguishes holistic education from other forms of education are its goals, its attention to experiential learning, and the significance that it places on relationships and primary human values within the learning environment."
