Tiger families:
I have always valued how our community comes together for a good cause, and education at Allegan Public Schools is certainly that. Our community partnerships are vital to the success of the staff and students of Allegan Public Schools, and I wanted to share a non-exhaustive list of the many partnerships that we engage in for the betterment of our students:
- Kids Hope
- Big Brothers Big Sisters
- Allegan Department of Health and Human Services – Pathways to Potential
- West Michigan Works
- Lake Michigan College
- Linking Center and Bravo Christian Reformed Church, Pullman
- Community Action of Allegan County
- TRIO Educational Opportunity Center
- Michigan Rehabilitation Services
- Michigan Career Technical Institute
- Allegan County Early Head Start
- Allegan Ministerial Council and Local Churches
- Love INC.
- Allegan County Transportation

These community partners are often the unsung heroes in our collective efforts to support our students. I wanted to take this opportunity to offer them our sincere gratitude. The phrase “it takes a village” has never been more true as we think about meeting the needs of our students. We cannot do it alone, and thankfully we do not have to. Thank you all!
