GRAND HAVEN, Mich. — Grand Haven Area Public Schools (GHAPS) will continue to provide food to all students under 18 years old while through the end of the school year. 

“To date, GHAPS has provided nearly 49,000 meals to our students,” says GHAPS Superintendent Andrew Ingall. “We cannot thank our community partners enough for the support they continue to provide in order for us to pack and distribute these meals.”

GHAPS has been providing breakfast and lunch to anyone under 18 years old – not just those who qualify for free or reduced lunch. Due to Governor Gretchen Whitmer’s executive order suspending face-to-face learning at K-12 schools for the remainder of the school year.
