Cummings Elementary School

Congratulations to the Class of 2026! We welcomed them back to walk through the hallways and see some of their former teachers. Mr. Martini, Mr. Roger, Mrs. Marckini, Mrs. Madden, Mrs. Turney, Mrs. Schuiling, Mr. Roberts and Mrs. Devries also made a surprise visit to see them too!

Our 3rd graders had an amazing day at Connor Bayou along the Grand River filled with outdoor adventures, hands-on learning, and lots of smiles this week! 🌿☀️

Students had the opportunity to learn beyond the classroom and we are so proud of their curiosity, teamwork, and excitement throughout the day!

Thank you Ottawa County Parks and Recreation!

We celebrated our April Terrific Kids today with Kiwanis! We are so proud of each and every one of them—way to shine, kids! 🌟

It’s not a mouse in the classroom… it’s HOT LAVA! This morning, Mrs. Masko had the students navigating the ‘lava’ and having a blast trying not to touch the floor. Fun and learning rolled into one!

We are incredibly grateful to all of our amazing families for your generosity and support during our March is Reading Month celebrations and fundraiser! 📚✨

Thanks to you, we raised an outstanding $15,812.84 to support our students and promote a love of reading throughout our school. Your contributions truly make a difference!

We had so much fun celebrating together—please enjoy some of these highlights from the past couple of weeks. 📖

We were excited to welcome the Kiwanis Club to our school today as they celebrated our March Terrific Kids! 🎉 Their support and recognition mean so much to our students and helps encourage them to keep shining both in and out of the classroom.

As part of our March is Reading Month celebration, we also held a school-wide raffle featuring two brand new bikes generously donated by the Kiwanis Club 🚲📚. Congratulations to our lucky winners—we hope you enjoy the ride and keep turning those pages!

Thank you, Kiwanis Grand Rapids, for your continued partnership and for making a positive difference in our school community!

Who did an incredible job at their spring concert? Please raise your hands.

Way to go Class of 2038!

Our Cummings Elementary Girls on the Run group has been working incredibly hard as they prepare for their annual 5K on May 16th! 🏃‍♀️

From building endurance to encouraging one another every step of the way, these girls are showing what dedication, confidence, and teamwork look like. We couldn’t be more proud of their commitment and positive energy!

Keep up the amazing work, girls — race day will be here before you know it! 💜🎉

We are in the last week of our month-long Read-A-Thon fundraiser, and we need your support still!

As of this morning, we’ve raised $8,668! We still have a LONG way to go, but with your help, we can reach our goal!

Please share the QR code below with family and friends to help support our Read-A-Thon!

Please send cash or check donations as soon as possible to the school office. If sending a check, please make it payable to Grandville Public Schools. Be sure to include your child’s name with any cash or check donation so we can properly track it.

Each year, our Cummings Bulldog Boosters (CBB) works to raise an average of $50 per student to support a variety of programs and activities for our students. These include classroom parties, popcorn days, field trips, Treasure Tower, community events, and so much more. The pledges collected during the Read-A-Thon help make all of these opportunities possible.

Excitement continues for our March is Reading Month celebrations and we couldn’t resist sharing a few more fun moments from last week 📚✨
