Mathnasium of Grand Rapids West is partnering with our PTO this summer to offer fun math camps for elementary students.

These camps are designed to build confidence, make math fun, and keep skills strong over the summer. As part of this partnership, a portion of each enrollment will be donated back to support Alward Elementary.

It’s an easy way to support both your child and our school community.

Use coupon code Alward when registering at bit.ly/campmathnasium2026

(*Note – The coupon code can be applied for any student, regardless of school. Feel free to use for siblings or share with friends and family to increase the impact for Alward!)

Alward PTC has not updated or amended the bylaws of the association since 2013. Since we are more than 10 years out, we felt a review was needed. We are hoping to amend the bylaws at our annual meeting on April 21 at 6:30pm.

Head to our website to view the proposed amendments and the current bylaws. We also posted a copy that explains the bylaws without all the legalese. This PDF is just to explain what the bylaw means - it will not be in the new proposed bylaws.
