Community Partnerships
 

Montague Area Public Schools is part of several consortiums that provide supporting programs for our students and community. Collaboration among school districts broadens and strengthens services that districts might not otherwise be able to offer.

DHS Family Resource Center

The Department of Health & Human Services' Family Resource Center is located inside NBC Middle School.  The center offers resources to help families within our community.  Their services include medical assistance, food assistance, daycare assistance, utility assistance, etc.  During the school year, office hours are Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.  Summer office hours vary.

Muskegon Area Career Tech Center

Students can earn credits toward graduation requirements in their respective districts while learning highly marketable skills that can lead to lifelong careers. Programs range from construction trades to computer information network systems to machine tool technologies. Visit the Career Tech Center website.

North Service Unit
