Meet the Staff! The Partnership is staffed by former and actively homeschooling parents. We are traveling this road with you! We do not have an office on the school campus, but we do have a mailbox in the Central Office where you may drop off paperwork. What are the Partnership office hours? Partnership staff do not have an office on campus, but have an inbox at the Central Office (STEM/Central building) on campus. Our hours are the same as Central Office, M-F, 8-4:30, following the school calendar. We are best reached via email and we do our best to return messages in a timely manner. The Central Office is staffed and open from approx. 8:00 until 4:30 M-F. The BS public school staff is very friendly, but may not always know the daily details of Partnership classes and activities, therefore you must contact us with your questions and concerns.

Where is Berrien Springs School campus located?
All of the school buildings are on one campus, conveniently located in downtown Berrien Springs, very close to the west entrance to the Fairgrounds.
Physical Address/ Mailing address: 285 Sylvester Ave., P.O. Box 130 Berrien Springs, MI 49103
From the light in town at Speedway heading west, go a few blocks until the road continues straight as Snow or goes to the right as Shawnee. Take Shawnee, then an immediate right onto Sylvester at the blue Gateway building. The Middle School and Virtual Academy are on the first drive to the left, as indicated by the sign.
OR
From old 31, heading south past Andrews University and Apple Valley Market, you could go all the way to the light at the corner of 31 and Ferry, or you could turn right onto Hamilton, just after McDonalds and just before the Community Library. Follow Hamilton until it reaches a dead-end at Sylvester Rd (and school). Follow Sylvester Ave. past the High School, and the Middle School and Virtual Academy will be the road on your right, as indicated by the sign.
