Students at Ridge Park Charter Academy

I love this time of year-the decorations, the Christmas music and the excitement kids have waiting for the big day!  I also love doing special holiday events and shows.  This weekend on “Where You Live” we’ll look at how families around West Michigan celebrate.  The show is taped at Ridge Park Charter Academy in Grand Rapids where they have students from 20 different countries.  This school celebrates with a special “World Party Week” where each classroom studies a country-learning about the dress, customs and cultures of each place.  The best part is that there are students in the building from each of the countries the kids are learning about so it really brings things to life!  The show will also feature great ideas on ways to save on holiday gift giving at Goodwill, healthy snacks your kids will love, tips from a Priority Health expert on ways to workout while finishing your shopping and highlights from a special event at Meijer that truly captures the spirit of the season!   This season take time to celebrate the things that matter most-Where You Live!
