"Are You Smart Than An 8th Grader?" Trivia Night at HMS | May 21 from 6-8 pm.  

This fundraiser promises a fun night of learning, laughter and community building.

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).

For the last 77 years, May has been designated as Mental Health Awareness Month.  It was introduced by the organization Mental Health America, with the focus of increasing awareness, reducing stigma, and promoting wellness.

In this month's newsletter, you'll learn more about practices that can help improve our children’s mental health as well as our own.  

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.
