And just like that, we’re back!

Our LISD students are back on campus, reconnecting with familiar faces and getting a brand new year underway.

The energy from our students and staff says it all. We’re ready!

Welcome to the 2026-2027 school year!

Different districts. Shared purpose.

Superintendents from across Lenawee County came together to look ahead, share ideas and plan for the year to come.

Because while every district has its own students, staff and community, there’s a lot we can accomplish when we work together.

Here’s to working together, supporting one another and making it a great year for students across Lenawee County. Let’s make it a great one, Lenawee!

Today, we kicked off a new school year together with a reminder of the impact each of us can have on the people around us. As we head into 2026-27, we’re ready to believe in one another, serve our students and communities, and keep growing together. We can’t wait to welcome our students back!

Fair week is one of our favorite times of the summer!

If you're heading out to the Lenawee County Fair this week, be sure to stop by the LISD booth and say hello. We'd also encourage you to wander through the barns and exhibit halls to cheer on the many local students showcasing their 4-H projects and animals. The time, care, and dedication they put into these projects is something to celebrate.

Here are a few photos from today, including some of the students we had the chance to run into and Kurt Kominek and Ben Murray representing the LISD at our fair booth. We hope to see you at the fair this week!

Congratulations to Malachi, Alyssa, Cody, and Ben as we celebrate their incredible achievements through Project SEARCH!

Over the past year, these four interns have built workplace skills, gained confidence, and taken meaningful steps toward their future careers through hands-on experiences at ProMedica Charles and Virginia Hickman Hospital. Today, we celebrate everything they've accomplished and the bright futures ahead.

Today's Celebration of Achievement is a reminder of what is possible when students, families, employers, and community partners come together to create opportunities that truly change lives.

That's a wrap on another incredible summer of Career Exploration Camps!

Over the past three weeks, hundreds of campers explored new interests, built new skills, made new friends, and discovered just how much they can do. None of it would be possible without our amazing instructors, volunteers, staff, and families. Thank you for making this another unforgettable summer!

What a great way to wrap up another week of Career Exploration Camps! Today, families got to step inside the classrooms, see the projects campers have been working on, and hear about everything they explored this week. There's nothing better than watching students proudly share what they've created. Thanks to all of our campers, families, and staff for making it another fun and memorable week!
