Districtwide Outdoor Movie hosted by HHS Student Senate

All Students have a HALF DAY on Thursday, May 8 for the Tulip Time KinderParade.

HPS is proud to award two more Teachers Live Here grants to Holland educators:

• Isabella Smith (Kindergarten at Jefferson)
• Alec Driscol (Holland Middle School)

Along with $26,500 in down payment assistance, they could also get $2,500 to assist with closing costs if they purchase a home within the school district boundaries.  

HMS Teacher, Kyle Kreps was awarded $5,000 for being named the 2025 Power H IMPACT Award Winner.  

We invite you to congratulate Kreps as he represents HPS in the Tulip Time KinderParade.

Congratulations to the Holland High School Chorus for their Division 1 Excellent Rating at MSVMA State Choral Festival on Friday - something this group hasn’t done before!

HPS Families and members of the Holland Community will have one more chance to give input on the district's five-year facility plan on Monday, May 12, 3:45pm at Holland Language Academy.  Superintendent Nick Cassidy will discuss:

• Phase 1 of the Plan (Redistricting K-5 buildings)
• Phase 2 of the Plan (Building Renovations, Facility Construction, and Use of Existing Facilities)
• Results of a Community Survey 

This meeting was originally scheduled to happen on Monday, April 28 but was cancelled to give additional time to gather more/better information about the Facility Plan.

We’ll celebrate new students and families to Holland Public Schools and offer assistance to complete online registration and enrollment.

Wednesday, May 21, 5-6:30pm at Holland Middle School

• FREE Ice Cream from The Polar Patrol.
• FREE Summer Goodie Bag, book giveaways, and fun summer learning activities!
• The Ottawa County Health Dept will be there giving the required Vision & Hearing screenings for Kindergarten Enrollment.  (Please make an appointment for limited availability)
• Current HPS families who are registered for 2025-26 by May 21 will be entered into a drawing for $100 Meijer gift cards!

As we prepare for the start of the next school year, it's time register your student for 2025-26. 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 2025-2026 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.

• Register by May 21 to be in the running for a $100 Meijer gift card.
