For K-12 families who have NOT completed online registration OR who need assistance with:

• Registration or Enrollment

• Academic counseling
• Paying fees
• These services will NOT be available at Open House on Tuesday, August 25!

Students who need transportation during the first two weeks of school must register BEFORE Wednesday, August 12.

The first day of School is Thursday, August 27.

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.

Holland Public Schools is excited to introduce our newest addition to the Dutch Athletic Department. Meet Coach Mike Woodby.
