No School for Students this Friday, October 31
This Friday is our second of five Professional Learning Fridays, and there will be no school for students.
ELPS Sex Ed Advisory Board Curriculum Open House
ELPS is considering a new HIV/STI prevention and sex education curriculum for high school health classes: Rights, Respect and Responsibility published by Advocates for Youth.
The Michigan-Aligned version of Rights, Respect and Responsibility has undergone review by a team of district educators, administrators and parents/guardians and has been recommended to the ELPS Board of Education for consideration. As part of ELPS’s curriculum review and adoption process, members of the school community – caregivers, parents, families, educators, staff and students – are all welcome to review lessons and materials, ask questions and provide input about the recommendation. The Board of Education will take action on this recommendation at the December 8, 2025 Board meeting.
The Open House will be held Wednesday, November 5, 2025 in the Hub in East Lansing High School (upper level outside the media center). The Open House will run from 5:30 – 7:00 p.m. with a presentation from 6:00 – 6:30 p.m. Pizza and light refreshments will be available.
