Tonia, The kent County Genealogy site is the best most informative GenWeb site on the internet. You are in luck... there is alot of information on Kent County Schools. My grand father went to shcool in Kent county in the 1920's as well I think Evergreen Streen is in Alpine township but i am not 100% Here si the Link for schools in Kent county http://www.rootsweb.com/~mikent/schools/index.html Here si the main Kent County Michigan GenWeb Project http://www.rootsweb.com/~mikent/ Evelyn Sawyer and all of the volenteers have doen an incredable job on this site over the years. I actually found some grade school pictures of my grandfather and his brothers and sisters from a posting on this site. Good Luck!!
