Berlin Township S/D #3

Berlin Township School District #3 is an open, traditional public school district located at 6679 S. State Road in Ionia, Michigan. Situated within a rural distant setting inside the broader Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood metropolitan region, the district operates independently outside of charter networks or supervisory unions. Managing a single elementary facility, it provides foundational instruction to students from kindergarten through sixth grade, offering local families a focused and community-anchored educational setting.

Distinguished by its remarkably small learning environment, the district serves a total enrollment of just 15 elementary students spanning grades K–6. This close-knit student body—comprising eight female and seven male learners—benefits from an extraordinary level of individualized attention and support. To guide and assist these young learners, the district maintains a dedicated workforce of 7.1 full-time equivalent staff members, including 2.3 full-time equivalent teachers, 2 instructional aides, and 2.8 support staff personnel. This highly favorable staffing ratio enables educators to tailor academic instruction closely to each student's needs, creating a uniquely supportive school culture.
