On Friday August 12, we had our first community experience, we rode The Rapid. The Rapid is easy, convenient, cheap, reliable, safe, clean, relaxing and fun. Our class never knew that so many people used the bus every day to get where they need to go.
It was really interesting for us to compare how we get around and how the people of Grand Rapids get around. A lot of us may have jobs in the Grand Rapids area when we graduate from Hudsonville so The Rapid would be something we could use.
The Rapid is $1.50 for a two way ride. The Rapid is cool because on the buses there are two ways to get off. Just because you can't drive doesn't mean you can't go anywhere. The Rapid is a way for people with disabilities to get transportation around town.

Hello MERIT Students!
We hope that you are having a great summer and are staying busy. Mrs. Cunningham has been enjoying every second with little Luci. She has also enjoyed the summer in Holland and at her family cottage. Mrs. Maly broke her foot so she spent most of her summer in a boot! Parker and Archer are doing great!
We are getting very excited for a new school year and to see so many familiar faces and some new faces too!
There are several things that you will need to bring the first day of school in order to be prepared. Here is a list to take with you as you go "back to school shopping":
If you are wanting to help supply our classroom for the school year, we could always use...
If you will be taking medication during the school day you must fill out forms in the main office BEFORE SCHOOL BEGINS.
Enjoy the rest of your summer!
Mrs. Cunningham and Mrs. Maly

There are several things that you will need to bring the first day of school in order to be prepared. Here is a list to take with you as you go "back to school shopping":
- a 3 ring 2 inch hard covered binder (not a "trapper keeper" style)
- a packet of 5 divider tabs for the binder
- a 2 pocket folder (to use as your homework folder)
- pencils
- erasers
- an agenda large enough for you to write daily assignments
If you are wanting to help supply our classroom for the school year, we could always use...
- Kleenex
- hand sanitizer
- pump dispensing soap
- pencils
- highlighters
- expo markers for the white board
If you will be taking medication during the school day you must fill out forms in the main office BEFORE SCHOOL BEGINS.
Enjoy the rest of your summer!
Mrs. Cunningham and Mrs. Maly
