Negative lunch balances!

Please be mindful of your student's  negative lunch balances.  You can make a payment at familyportal.cloud  with a credit card, with no fee.   I do not want to call families to remind them about their negative balances.  All positive balances do carry over to the following school year. 
Thank you for your help and support!    


HC Football Family Fun Night for 3rd-8th graders (Fall 2023 grades)

This is a free event on Tuesday, May 30 from 6:30-8PM at HCHS Football Stadium for current 2nd thru 7th graders who are interested in playing football next Fall at Holland Christian. Whether you are just curious about playing or all-in, come on out for a fun night of knockerball, dodgeball, air force football, and ice cream sundaes.  This is a fun way to meet the coaches, players, and parents who are involved in HCS Football at different levels.  Kids will be split by age group for competitions (2nd/3rd, 4t/5th, 6th/7th). Parents are encouraged to attend at the end of the event as there will be a time of Q&A with the coaches, staff, and players.  We hope to see everyone there, Go Maroons!!!

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Grant Arnoldink (grantarnoldink@gmail.com).

HC Athletics Notes

Summer Sports Camps - In addition to adding ETS session E, we also added baseball camps the week of June 25.  Registration has an early bird rate for camps until 2 weeks before the camp starts, so get registered today! https://hollandchristian.org/summer-23-sports-camps/

Final Forms Athlete Registration is ready for the 23-24 school year.  Parents need to log into their account and select the sports their child is interested in participating in.  Please do this now so coaches can communicate summer opportunities.  Your 23-24 MHSAA Pre-Participation Physical can be completed anytime between now and the start of the next sport season.  Your physical form should be printed from your Final Forms account after your forms have been completed.  You can then upload a scan or photo of your 1 page completed physical form to your child's FF account.

  • Holland Christian Physical Night offers discounted Sports Physicals to to families not able to see their PCP due to insurance reasons.  Please register for our May 31 Physical Night soon if you plan to take advantage of this opportunity.  There are still slots available for 6:45pm and later.  https://maroonsathletics.org/Registration
  • Our Middle School teams are officially moving from the MKO Conference to the West Michigan Middle School Conference (WMMSC) for the 23-24 school year.  All 14 MKO schools have been accepted along with Zeeland Christian from the AOK league.  The WMMSC now has a total of 38 member middle schools.  Our travel will be significantly reduced with our new 7 team "Southwest Division" for the bulk of our event scheduling.  These schools are West Ottawa, Hamilton, Holland, HC, ZC, Creekside & Cityside. 
  • Holland Christian will be competing with WMMSC tennis schools who mirror the HS season.  Boys MS tennis will now be in the fall and girls MS tennis will now be in the spring.  These seasons are updated on Final Forms for parents to see when they select sports for their 6th-8th grade children for the 23-24 school year.  In order to plan effectively, it is important for MS tennis families to register on Final Forms as early as possible.   

We are continuing with Eventlink for our schedules, tickets and passes for the 23-24 school year.  Many of you have expressed how nice it is to use the app for practice and event calendars on your phone, especially with multiple children in sports.  Schedules for 23-24 will be appearing soon and tickets/passes will be available after we get into the summer.  The following link will help get you started with using the Eventlink App and/or connect you to the public website with the same information.
