Today, the Seniors of Grand Rapids High School took one final walk through the halls of our Schools, celebrated and cheered on by former teachers, staff, and students along the way.
It was a special send-off honoring the Class of 2026 and all they have accomplished during their time in our schools. These students are amazing, and we are so proud of the hard work, growth, and memories they leave behind.
