  • I have been absolutely thrilled with Thornapple elementary. The principal is personable, involved, committed and the teachers fantastic. I thoroughly appreciate that they do not allow bullying or unkindness at the school and seek to educate our kids as well as give them great exposure to culture and the arts as well.
