Inquire

Whether you are in the beginning stages of considering HCS for your student or have specific questions, our new student inquiry form is the best next step! This inquiry step is simply a conversation starter. If you have a Preschool, Young 5’s or Kindergarten student, we invite you to fill out our contact form or email our Early Childhood office.

Specifically for prospective 1st grade through 8th grade Elementary and Middle School students, the inquiry form helps us get to know your student, understand your hopes for their education, and see how HCS might support your family. It also gives our team the context we need to better answer your questions and think through possible next steps together. Completing this form does not commit you to applying or enrolling at Hudsonville Christian—it’s just a way for us to listen well and serve you thoughtfully.

Bring your student or visit on your own. Please ensure that you have filled out the inquiry form before contacting HCS about scheduling a visit.
