Inclusion Week (February 9-13) is a dedicated time to celebrate diversity, promote understanding, and foster a school culture where all students feel valued and included regardless of ability. 

• Throughout the week, we highlight the importance of inclusive practices in education by engaging students and staff in activities that promote empathy, collaboration, and accessibility.

By embracing inclusion, we strengthen our community and create a learning environment where everyone belongs.

This week, we're talking with parents about the Small Schools and Big Opportunities available at Holland Public Schools

As part of our district’s ongoing efforts to create a safe, welcoming, and supportive learning environment for all students, your child will be invited to take a Social Emotional Learning Survey  Wednesday, January 28 - Friday, February 6. 

• The results of the survey will help our staff strengthen programs and support that increase our learner’s awareness and competency with social emotional skills.
• Results of the survey will be published in March on the district website.

HPS is accepting nominations for the annual Power H IMPACT Awards. On the podcast this week, we talk with last year's winner, HMS Assistant Principal Kyle Kreps.
