One of the worst schools to send your kids to nothing but bullying. My kids only went there for a year and it’s been constant problems. A bus aid thought it was ok to put her hands on my daughter and some girls thought it was ok to put glue in my daughter’s eye and both times the school didn’t
Posted by a parent on 9/16/2026Jefferson is a school which has been dealt a difficult hand. In the past that has resulted in poor test scores and poor reputation.

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe are so thankful we chose our neighborhood school! Holland Heights offers beautiful diversity and the staff exude kindness and compassion. I love how Mr. Derr (principal) greets kids every morning as they come to school. He goes great lengths to make himself known among the kids and they develop a healthy and safe relationship with an authority figure. He also has a passion for connecting parents and kids in tighter relationships. These are just a few reasons we love Holland Heights.Parent Review7y ago - South Side Christian School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageHolland West has a wonderful community of students, teachers, parents and staff. Teachers and staff strive to provide an enriched and safe learning environment. My children have attended this school for 6 and 4 years. It is a k-7 model which allows older students to model and mentor our young students. Teachers in older grades collaborate with teachers in younger grades to buddy up and share learning. The PTO is vibrant. There are opportunities for after school activities and middle school sports begins in 7th grade. The band and orchestra programs begin in 5th grade and build into an excellent tradition of middle and high school music programs.Parent Review10y ago - Holland Language Academy at Van Raalte

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMi niña lleva dos años asistiendo a esta escuela y hasta ahora tengo buenas experiencias con los maestros. Es muy difícil cuando hay múltiples culturas involucradas y se hace difícil las relaciones interpersonales pero los maestros tratan y ayudan a todos por igual, yo estoy agradecida con el apoyo que le dan a mi hijaParent Review2y ago
