HPSP Job Fair

HPS is proud to provide 7-Day Meal Boxes to families in the district during the summer months.

Each box will contain a menu with food prep instructions and food items for 7 breakfasts and 7 lunches per week. 

• Meal pick-up will be located at Central Wesleyan Church (446 West 40th St. Holland MI 49423 - Door A) from 12:00-1:00 PM 
•  Thursday, June 11 through July 30
• Meals will be distributed based on a first come first served basis and not based on pre-registration. 

There is no need to register for these meals... just stop by during the pick-up time to receive the meals for your student(s).

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.

We are excited to announce that enrollment is now open for the 2026 Summer Adventure Camps with the Outdoor Discovery Center! This engaging summer program is designed for students going into Kindergarten through 5th grade and will focus on literacy skills through hands-on, nature-rich experiences.

• Adventure Camp will be held at Jefferson Elementary 282 W 30th Street
• June 15-July 23
• 8:30am – 12:30pm each day (Breakfast and Lunch will be available at no cost.)

The Summer Adventure Camp with ODC is led by the Outdoor Discovery Center’s Education Network and will take the place of HPS Summer School.  This is the ONLY Summer School option being offered at HPS in the summer of 2026 for K-5 students.

This week, we have highlights from the Holland Early College 13th Year Celebration - with Student Speaker Max Calanchi.

Holland voters will see a Sinking Fund Proposal on the May 5 ballot. In addition to supporting ongoing facility repairs and improvements, the updated language in the proposal would allow the district to use these funds for transportation and maintenance vehicles. Proposal Highlights:

• No increase in the current millage rate (1.25) over the next 10 years
• Estimated revenue is approximately $2,540,000
• Expanded language will allow funding for transportation and maintenance of vehicles
• Helps maintain and protect voter-approved bond investments
• Reduces strain on the general operating budget

Every day at Escape Ministries, students who have been labeled as “failures” or “troubled youth” defy the odds to overcome family turmoil, addiction, expulsions, court sentences, deceased & incarcerated parents, and yet still somehow hang on.  The Hero In Me program at Escape Ministries celebrates these heroic youth and helps the community to see beneath the surface – to peoples’ hearts and stories. 

HHS is proud to have two students recognized as Hero In Me Finalists: 

• Anotidaishe Mangwiro
• Juan Reyna

They both win $1000 scholarship each, and a college/career-ready backpack stuffed with a laptop and more, along with continued mentorship into their future endeavors.
