Who Are We?

We are a vibrant, multi-campus community united by a common mission to equip minds and nurture hearts to transform the world for Jesus Christ.

As you learn more about our school, visit campuses, and meet the people of the community, you will see that our mission is not just a collection of meaningless words, but a rallying cry that guides every decision we make, and every student and class we teach.

HC Stories

Holland Christian is more than just a building, it’s a community made up of many people, each with a different background and story of how they came to be here. One of the best ways to get to know us as a school is to hear the stories of the families that make up that community.

Our Mission & Beliefs

Our mission here at Holland Christian Schools is to equip our students’ minds and nurture their hearts in such a holy way as to prepare those minds and hearts to transform our world for Jesus Christ. It is not something we take lightly or flippantly, but gives us joyful meaning and glad purpose each day we’re here. It unites us as well, so that what happens in 2nd grade is important to us later in middle school, so that the quality work done by our preschool teacher aides and school janitors is as important as the work accomplished by Bible teachers and administrators.

Better Together in Christ

We are grateful for the time and investment of this large group of volunteers who all together make up our Diversity Task Force–a working group of diverse representation from HCS, the Holland community, parents, students, alumni, etc. all working together to advance our HC Board of Trustees’ priorities to be better together in Christ. For practical purposes, the task force is divided into the four areas of curriculum, recruitment, retention, and community scholarship assistance, all of which are described in more detail below. Each group meets monthly and provides periodic updates about their work, but if you have questions about the Diversity Task Force, feel free to contact the Katie Clausing at kclausing@hollandchristian.org.

Board Of Trustees

Typically, our Board of Trustees comprises a cross-section of our school community, primarily parents of children attending the school currently. Over the years this has included tradespeople, educators, small business owners, doctors, bankers, and stay-at-home moms. Currently there are 12 board members, but that number varies between 9-12 members depending on the needs of the board and the availability of those willing to serve.
