Welcome to Grand Rapids Public Schools

Summer 2025 marks the busiest season yet for the Reimagine GRPS with Us! initiative, with transformative projects underway across the district to create more inspiring and safer spaces for scholars and staff.

“I wouldn’t even consider the work that I do a job,” YMCA Camp Counselor Ja’Koveon Perkins said. “It's really enjoyable.”

In the summer of 1969, Nina Lewis-Sleet became the first black woman named to the Grand Rapids Board of Education.

The kits are used to train students and staff how to perform CPR on adults and children.

Young artists from Coit Creative Arts Academy will soon have their work displayed at a nationally significant site more than 800 miles from home.

The Grand Rapids Board of Education voted Monday to approve the 2025-26 budget. The 2025–26 budget totals $259.8 million, a $16.7 million decrease from the 2024–25 budget of $276.5 million.
