2026-27 Student Registration
As we prepare for the start of the next school year, it's time to register your student for 2026-27. This is something we ask ALL current HPS families to do EVERY year. Completing the registration lets us know:
- Your student(s) will be returning next year!
- Your household contact information is up to date
- Your student health information is up to date
- if you are requesting transportation for the 2026-2027 school year (Deadline to request bussing is August 1.)
Without this information, your student can not be added to a class list for next year OR have a class schedule created for them.
HPS Podcast 6.2
It's back-to-school for HPS students and on the HPSPodcast this week we're talking with HHS Student Senate President Maggie Telgenhof.
Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) Bus Expectations
Holland Public Schools is implementing Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) Bus Expectations across our district's transportation services. This initiative aims to create a safe, respectful, and responsible environment for all students who utilize our school buses.
Pre-K Farm School
In partnership with the Critter Barn, Holland Public School is now offering Pre-K Farm School.
- 4-year-old students will travel to the Critter Barn each week for lessons about life on the Farm.
- Lessons they learn at the farm will help teach students about Math and Reading.
- Develop and nurture each child's academic, social, emotional, and creative abilities.
- Students will build friendships and experience caring teachers.
There are limited openings in the 25-26 HPS Pre-K Farm School.
West - Back to School Message
We are excited to welcome you back for another great year at Holland West! You will see that we are entering into our 1st year of a complete remodel at West. The east wing of the building will be under construction in the 1st phase and shouldn’t interfere much with our daily operations. However, we will be cozy at the other side of the building with every classroom and office now in use.
A Back To School Message From Superintendent Cassidy
We’re excited for another great school year at Holland Public Schools—full of learning, connection, and opportunities for every student.
Welcome Back to Holland Heights!
We are excited to see you all back for another great year at Holland Heights @Longfellow. We are here at Longfellow for one more year before we go back to our “HOME” up in the Heights as construction will be completed next spring. The new building is looking great and we are excited to get there next year!!
