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.

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.
