What might surprise you is that Orchard View Schools—a public district serving about 2,100 students across five schools in Muskegon Township—has serious roots here, going back to 1895 when a one-room schoolhouse called Orchard View stood at Apple Avenue and Harvey Street. The district's Cardinal mascot and athletics programs run deep in the local identity, and the schools sit just a few miles east of Lake Michigan's shoreline, with the Muskegon River running through the northern corner. The high school building itself opened in fall 2006, and the district participates in the Muskegon Area Promise Scholarship program, which covers free college tuition at area institutions for qualifying students. You'll find a diverse student body across all grade levels, and the community reach extends to over 10,000 individuals through education and resources.
