Fennville Public Schools is a public school district in West Michigan. It serves Fennville, Clyde Township, and parts of the townships of Casco, Ganges, Lee, Manlius, Saugatuck, and Valley.
One of Fennville's early schools was a brick building originally built in 1894 and expanded several times. It was the only school in the district until Anna Michen Elementary was built in 1957.
A new high school was dedicated on May 11, 1963. The architect was G.E. Diekema of Kalamazoo. The 1894 building then became the junior high school.
After voters rejected a bond issue in 1971 to replace the antiquated junior high, the building began falling apart. Collapsing plaster and unstable floors made the district close certain rooms in October 1972. With the recommendation from the Michigan Department of Education to close the building, students were sent home early on October 8 for an emergency meeting of district staff. The school was then abandoned, and the junior high students began sharing the high school building, with each student body attending on a half-day basis.
The crisis ended when the present high school opened for classes on March 17, 1975. The previous high school then became the district's middle school.
Fennville Elementary opened in fall 2006, replacing Michen Elementary.
Fennville schools share a campus on Memorial Drive, north of downtown Fennville.
