Please take a moment to review the latest ELPS Updates from the October 27, 2025 Board of Education meeting. We’ll continue sharing these updates after each regular Board of Education meeting. The next update will be shared following the November 10, 2025 meeting.
Superintendent's Bi-Weekly Report to the Board of Education - October 27, 2025
A new chapter begins for our East Lansing family. 
Together with our partners at UM Health-Sparrow, we opened the doors to the ELPS Health Center - bringing accessible, high-quality care to students and community members right inside East Lansing High School.
Because when our students are healthy, supported, and cared for, they’re ready to engage, learn, and grow.
