GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (GRPS) -- Grand Rapids Public Schools leaders held a neighborhood meeting to share information about proposals for the property formerly known as Kensington School.

The school building is located at 1031 Kensington Ave. SW in Grand Rapids and has been unused for several years.

District leaders and the Grand Rapids Board of Education will consider the proposals made for the property and sought input from those living near the building in a meeting Wednesday.

Those living near the building received an invitation by mail for the meeting that was held at Southwest Middle High School - Academia Bilingüe on Wednesday at 5:30 p.m.

Below are links to the submitted proposals that the board will consider.
