Zeeland Christian School
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Zeeland Christian School (ZCS) is a K-8 Christian school in Zeeland, Michigan.
It was established circa 1915.[1]
In a period prior to 1954, some classes were held at Cherry Avenue School and Third Christian Reformed Church. In 1954 the school added five classrooms.[2]
Prior to 1965 the school only included up to junior high school and referred students to Holland Christian High School, the senior high school of Holland Christian School. The Zeeland Christian School high school was scheduled to open in 1965, but the plans were scrapped.[3]
The school has a special education program for children with learning disabilities. By 2008 it began a 16,500 square feet (1,530 m2) expansion, paying $2 million from a $3 million capital campaign, partly to better accommodate that program.[4]
As of 2017[update] it had 1,101 students, making it Michigan's second largest private school by enrollment in a single campus, if preschoolers are included.[5] From the 2009–2010 school year to the 2014–2015 school year, the enrollment count minus preschoolers increased by 10%.[6]
