News and Announcements

The Class of 2026 will be entering high school next year as they said goodbye to their middle school years today.

Madilyn Vandenboss and Memphis Miranda-Wells didn’t feel like they were in their Thornapple Kellogg Middle School classroom any longer. Instead, they were transported to a Japanese garden filled with vivid pink and white cherry blossoms all around and above them.

What do grass, twigs, dirt, Monster trucks, the Cookie Monster, basketball courts and Kardashian photos have in common? They’re all parts of cricket habitats created by TK seventh-grade science students.

“Yeah! Another 3 pointer!” yelled an excited student across his 7th-grade classroom as he tossed his arms in the air.

Thornapple Kellogg Middle School students will present two performances of “Game of Tiaras” March 23 and 24. Both shows begin at 7 p.m. in the high school auditorium.

Four Thornapple Kellogg students - including one middle school student - will have their artwork displayed on banners in Middleville this spring. The students submitted original artwork to the “Art in the Air” banner contest sponsored by the Thornapple Arts Council and the Middleville DDA.

After a year off because of COVID, Thornapple Kellogg Odyssey of the Mind teams stepped up this weekend in a big way advancing seven of the district’s nine teams to the state finals.

Middle School math students are getting some additional devices to make their math learning just a little bit easier. Thanks to two grants - one recently awarded from the Wilson H. Craig fund and one awarded earlier this year from the Thornapple Area Enrichment Fund - middle school, algebra students will be equipped with graphing calculators.
