Hudsonville High School, is a public high school located in Hudsonville, Michigan. It serves grades 9-12 for the Hudsonville Public Schools.

It serves all of Hudsonville and small portions of Allendale and Jenison. It also includes the majority of Jamestown Charter Township and portions of the following townships: Blendon, Georgetown, and Zeeland, as well as a small portion of Allendale Charter Township.[6]

The present high school opened in fall 1963. VanderMeiden and Koteles was the architecture firm that designed the original building.[7] The pool was expanded in 1990.[8] In 1996, the freshman campus was established at 5535 School Avenue, in the former junior high school building.[9]

In fall 2014, a new freshman campus opened on the site of the high school. It included a new pool and auditorium, which opened in fall 2015. GMB was the architecture firm.[8]

As a result of the bond issue passed in 2019, a 3,700-seat arena and fitness center addition was built, as well as a connector between the high school and freshman campus and other additions. With the completion of these additions in December 2023, the high school is one of the largest in the state, at 580,000 square feet.[10][11]
