VBPS THANKS OUR COMMUNITY

Kid with her face mask

Thank You Van Buren Township

Dan Selman, Executive Assistant at Van Buren Township led the charge with donating 6000 masks to our students from pre-school to 4th grade.  Our bus drivers made sure that all students received the masks by handing them out on their routes as well masks were sent to the elementary buildings.

Thank You Rotary Club

The Rotary Club saw a need, asked our community and the community responded. 

The Belleville Rotary Club and Rotary Passport to Service Club coordinated a water bottle drive for children attending Van Buren Public Schools in grades kindergarten thru sixth. Special thanks to everyone who made donations!  

Thank you Meijer

Meijer is family company focused on enriching lives in the communities they serve.  As our teachers and staff members continue to navigate uncharted waters diligently working to creatively find ways to educate our students by way of virtual, and in-person classrooms, Meijer wanted to support, recognize, and show their appreciation. 

Through a lottery the following staff received a Meijer gift card to support our efforts in our community.  Thank you Meijer!
