A strong school system is important to community unity & success. Recently, Holland Public Schools shared a 5-Year Facility Plan.

Key themes of the 5-Year Facility Plan:

• Provide equitable access to programming & opportunities
• Right-size our district to reduce operational costs
• Invest in students, staff, & programs 

In order to plan & to be good stewards, we have a short survey we would like you to complete.

Thank you in advance for your time & for helping to shape the future of Holland.

This pop-up exhibit brings to life the story of the young Jewish girl who – in the pages of her world-renowned diary – documented two years of hiding in German-occupied Amsterdam during World War II. By sharing Anne's legacy with visitors, student docent leaders will inspire our community to never be bystanders but instead to stand up together against antisemitism, bigotry, and inequality wherever it may exist today.

SAVE THESE DATES:

• April 21- May 10 | Exhibit Open at HHS Media Center
• April 22 HEF | Exhibit Grand Opening Dinner at HHS
