MILLBROOK CHRISTIAN NAMED A 2008 MEIJER GOOD SCHOOL

The Grand Rapids Community Foundation has named Millbrook Christian Elementary School a 2008 Meijer Good School. Along with the recognition this award brings, Millbrook will receive a $15,750 grant from The Grand Rapids Community Foundation for the purchase of a laptop-based, wireless computer lab. The announcement was shared with the media on Monday, June 2, 2008.

Millbrook Christian has been working with the Grand Rapids Community Foundation throughout the year to complete the application process, which is somewhat similar to the process a school goes through to be named a Nation Blue Ribbon School. A formal presentation and celebration will take place at Millbrook Christian in Fall 2008 with Grand Rapids Community Foundation, teachers, and students.

The Meijer Good Schools for Grand Rapids Program is an initiative of the Grand Rapids Community Foundation and is funded by the Meijer Foundation with support from the Bank of America Charitable Foundation.
