Ian Overway, principal of Lake Hills Elementary School, reported to the Grand Haven Area Public Schools Board on May 11 that staff secured nine grants totaling more than $10,500 through the Grand Haven Schools Foundation.

Overway said the grants fund programs across three categories — Community & Social, Active & Experiential, and Immerse Literacy — intended to provide additional supports and learning opportunities for students. The board heard the report during the "Celebration of Learning" segment and took no formal action; the grants were presented as part of school-level efforts to expand instructional and enrichment experiences.

The recognition tied to the report included the district noting community partnerships such as the ODC Network, which was named Grand Partner of the Month at the same meeting. The district did not specify individual grant award amounts or specific programs beyond the category descriptions.
