Learn AND lead at Mulick!
Located on the southeast side of Grand Rapids, our school sits in a welcoming neighborhood next to scenic Mulick Park. The neighborhood is safe and walkable, and the school serves as a hub for the community.
As a school, we thrive because of our strong scholar leadership. Our Student Council helps make school and community decisions. Scholars are given leadership opportunities such as morning announcements, PBIS behavior rotations, safety posts, hallway monitoring and Student Council.
Our dedicated staff foster an environment that is safe and conducive to learning. Staff are trained to identify individual scholars needs and customize their teaching to target areas to help our scholars succeed. We utilize tutoring, mentoring, and after-school programs to provide extra academic and social support. Our highest priority is to ensure that each scholar grows academically, socially, and behaviorally, and we partner with families to ensure success at home and at school. At Mulick, we’re a family.
We have incorporated distance learning for years and are poised to be a leader in the district as a blended model of new technologies and old practices, giving our students the best of both worlds. Our 1-to-1 student technology device approach ensures that every student has the opportunity to learn inside and outside the classroom.

Change is happening at Ottawa Hills High School as community investments are turned over for the benefit of scholars.

A new weight room was unveiled at Ottawa Hills High School, the culmination of efforts from community partners and donors.

As Zoo School turns 50, volunteers are planning an open-house style event with a taco dinner, music, games and more to highlight the commitment to excellence in education offered by Grand Rapids Public Schools.
