GRANDVILLE -- Grandville High School students who take Advanced Placement classes now will find an "A" or "B" counts for a little more. After debate over when and how to implement it, the Board of Education approved a weighted grade policy for such classes. Board members voted 7-0 to implement the policy for freshmen who enroll in AP classes during their sophomore year, the 2008-09 school year.

Once again we’ve been led to believe the 2007-08 budget was complete, and once again we learn that agreement has not been reached. This has gone on since May. It is impacting schools, and it is impacting MASSP membership. Many believe, because they submitted their membership materials to central office to be paid that their membership is in. It isn’t!
