District News

Kentwood Public Schools is committed to sharing our students' stories, through their eyes, to highlight their individual experiences as students in KPS and to share more about our district from the people who matter most--our students. In this video you will meet Emani and Brooklyn. Their friendship began as first graders at Explorer Elementary and has thrived all the way into East Kentwood High School and their place on the EK Track and Field team. Hear more about this enduring and endearing Falcon Friendship -- Through the Eyes of Our Students.

For close to 40 years, students in the East Kentwood High School Residential Construction class have participated in building numerous homes throughout the community. In this video, students share their thoughts on what this ultimate real-world learning experience means to them.

Kentwood Public Schools continues to celebrate our amazing teachers and staff this month by sharing Falcon Features of just a few of the many dedicated staff who make an impact on our students each and every day. We invite you to get to know Vincent Mayfield--a Pinewood MIddle School teacher, coach, and a Forever Falcon.

 Kentwood Public Schools has some of the best teachers and staff around. They are dedicated, caring, hardworking, and talented. Please meet Sarah Kresnak, a first grade teacher at Discovery Elementary who was recently named one of 10 Regional Teachers of the Year in Michigan in this Falcon Feature.

Each moment in a school day is unique and has something special to offer our students--including recess. Recently we invited a group of East Kentwood High School students back to an elementary playground so that they could relive and reminisce about the joys of recess.
