The Big Rapids community continues to support our schools in so many ways! We benefit from a small-town family feel that's large enough to have key corporate players that strive to offer opportunities for our kids. In addition, many of our area businesses contribute to student experiences, opportunities to learn and grow, and to our schools and parent organizations. The schools are embedded in our community and the community in our schools. It's truly an amazing place to learn, teach, grow, and call home!

Over the past several years, various parent groups have come together to support and raise funds for student activities. Our students have reaped the benefit in various ways such as: field trips; health and fitness days including inflatables, foam machines, and outdoor activities; classroom supplies; educational website subscriptions; outdoor equipment such as playgrounds and benches; school t-shirts; school assemblies with engaging presenters; the construction of outdoor learning spaces; athletic equipment; band uniform contributions; and covering expenses for student trips for competition. We are incredibly lucky to have this parent support and we recognize and applaud the difference these organizations make in our students' school experience.
