TKHS and Community Honor Veterans

For 15 years, Thornapple Kellogg High School has invited the public to attend a school and community Veterans Day program. It was started largely by the efforts of John Loftus and later Charlie Pullen. Even though neither of those two men are with us anymore, the pride and tradition of the Veterans Day event remain, and it is a program they would almost certainly continue to be proud of today.
Veterans are honored at the annual community Veterans Day Assembly at TKHS.

TKHS Invites Community to Veterans Day Assembly

Thornapple Kellogg High School invites the community to the annual Veterans Day assembly. The event starts at 10 a.m. Nov. 11, in the large gymnasium. Guests should enter through the athletic lobby and park in the south parking lot off Bender Road. Guests should arrive early to check in and be seated prior to the event starting.

A message from High School Principal Tony Petersen

Thornapple Kellogg High School
Welcome to Thornapple Kellogg High School!
This is a great building filled with TK pride! Our staff wants our students to enjoy school and have fun, while at the same time being challenged with a rigorous curriculum, a balanced offering of elective classes, and a variety of extracurricular options. The TKHS staff, in cooperation with students, parents and the TK community, are committed to enabling every child to achieve his or her greatest potential.
We will give students tools they need to be successful once they graduate from TKHS - whether they are going into the workforce, attending a trade school, or moving on to college. We offer Advanced Placement Courses, dual-credit courses, and strong offerings in business, computer science, physical education, fine arts, and vocational areas. We teach and develop leadership skills, provide many opportunities for community service, and create an environment of helping others.
As soon as students enter high school, they become part of a TKHS family. Our staff builds positive relationships with students through our family settings and our focus on teaching and rewarding positive behavior. 
We value and look forward to family and community support in all areas. Please stop in and see us soon!
