And we’re here to help if you need it!

  • 4-year-old English preschools are 3 days/week (with both half day and full day options) OR 5 half or full days/week at both South Side and Rose Park
  • Spanish Immersion preschools at Rose Park:
    • 3-year-old Spanish Immersion preschool meets 3 days/week for half or full days, OR parents can choose 5 days/week with some classes in English
    • 4-year-old Spanish Immersion preschool meets 3 days/week for half or full days, OR parents can choose 5 days/week with some classes in English
• Got questions on Young Fives? Find that info on our All Things Kindergarten page
  • Parents can choose the 5-full-day option or the 3-full-day option at both South Side and Rose Park
• Got questions on our variety of kindergarten options? (They’re all wonderful choices, and you really can’t go wrong!) Find that info on our All Things Kindergarten page as well, but here’s the quick break down:
  • There’s a 3-full day English kindergarten at Rose Park only that spends weekly time at the Critter Barn.
  • There are 5-full day English kindergartens at both Rose Park and South Side.
  • Spanish Immersion kindergarten is 5-full days at Rose Park only, but there is a Spanish Immersion shuttle to Rose Park from Holland’s south side at the HCHS tennis court parking lot for those parents who live on Holland’s south side, but prefer Spanish Immersion for their elementary students.
  • Forest School kindergarten is 5-full days at the Forest School classrooms.
• Got questions on Holland Christian High School or Middle School? You can contact our Admissions Coordinator Kristin Coffman at 616.820.2806, or reach out to the principals, Miles Colago at HCHS, and Tom Strickwerda at HCMS.

All that to say, we can’t wait to have you join the HC family! 

Holland Christian’s tech administrators have worked with Linewize, the company that does HC’s content filtering, to create a handy online resource for parents that has useful and user friendly information about social media, content filtering, and how to have conversations with students about these topics. Please check it out and use it!

HCHS’ Entrepreneurship Class is thankful for your business! This fall our Entrepreneurship Class of 16 students combined creativity, technical skills, and business thinking to make a real-world impact. Throughout the course, students designed and built products using an impressive range of tools, including a CNC wood router, CNC plasma cutter, laser cutter, vinyl cutter, and a variety of traditional woodworking equipment.

Students didn’t stop at making products—they built a business. Together, they launched an online store, hcdesigns.store, where they marketed and sold their work to the community. In total, students created more than 40 unique designs, gaining hands-on experience in product development, manufacturing, branding, and sales.

Most importantly, this project was driven by purpose. All profits from sales were donated to Paradise Bound Ministries, a nonprofit organization that has established and supports an orphanage in Guatemala. Through their hard work and collaboration, students raised an impressive $3,101 in profit to support the orphanage.

The HC Designs shop is now closed for the semester, but we look forward to reopening next fall with new students, new designs, and new opportunities to serve! We would like to extend a sincere thank you to everyone who supported our students by purchasing products, sharing our work, and encouraging this project. Your support helped turn student learning into lasting impact!

Do you love the Lord and your work with young people? Do you believe that being part of a learning community applies to teachers as much as it does to students? Would you love to partner with a faculty team that isn’t afraid of hard work and pushes you to excel? You can see what positions we have open on our Employment Page or directly on Frontline website.

Holland Christian Schools is dedicated to building the best Christian faculty to prepare our students for lives of impact in the 21st century. If you want the chance to experience unmatched passion, consummate professionalism, and an operational tempo that will enable you to capture the very best of what you have inside, we invite you to apply. If chosen, the opportunity will change your life. Applicants with diverse backgrounds and cultures are encouraged to apply.

Enjoy your summer vacation and we’ll see you back in August! Be watching your email for the Back to School newsletter on Friday, August 1.
