”Christian education isn't simply about learning about the Bible and being able to recite psalms (although knowing the Bible is an important foundation for our faith), but it's about having people that have the same faith and values as me pour into my children in ways that I am not able to do.
Micah & Meredith VanderHillHolland Christian parents

”HC does a great job of equipping the littlest of kids to be on fire for Jesus!
Holland Christian parent

”We’re trying to raise our kids in the Lord and we can’t do this alone. We need our church and we need this school to help us do this. We pray that our kids become like trees planted by streams of water which yields its fruit in season and whose leaves do not wither.
Dr. Deb VanDuinenHolland Christian parent

”Everyday, my son tells me all about what he learned and the prayers he was saying at school with his friends. We are so happy to have moved here and found a great community to surround our boys!
Holland Christian parent

”Holland Christian has been a great place for our three children. Not only is it an incredible education and great community, but having God woven into all things is what we love the most. It's not just about having Bible class and chapel. It's the way our eighth grader learns about her Creator through science and math, the way our senior has been able explore his calling and learn new skills in Woods Class, and the way our sophomore grew deeply in her faith through the coaching and community of her cross country team. This is why we love HC.
Holland Christian parent

”I think my favorite phrase to describe Holland Christian is "Communion of the Saints". When you look at the rich history of Holland Christian, you can see its impact in our community and our world.
