MySchool

Throughout this year, we've thoroughly enjoyed visits from West Michigan Therapy Dogs. Today we got to thank them at a delicious lunch prepared by Mr. Dewicki's Hospitality class at Kent Career Tech Center .

Meet Lilly Teller, our Student Ambassador and soon-to-be graduate from Byron Center Public Schools!

Lilly said:
"I truly enjoyed my 3 years with MySchool@Kent. I made great connections with the staff as well as my teachers. I was taught so much about school and life; they truly helped me get on the right path when I was steering in a different direction.

Everyday coming in I always felt welcomed and comfortable; staff never failed to put a smile on my face or help me when I needed it. As the student ambassador I got to meet great people and have fun experiences. I was so glad to be chosen to be the voice of the students at MS@K, I will never forget my time here and the amazing impact it had on me!"

We couldn't be more proud of our students and their accomplishments!
