About Us

Who We Are

Lenawee ISD is one of 56 intermediate school districts established in Michigan in 1962. The LISD is an autonomous, tax-supported public school district governed by the laws of the State of Michigan. ISDs are regional service agencies that offer support services to all public students and schools in Michigan's 83 counties, ensuring implementation of six core services:

• Early Childhood
• Technology Services
• Teaching & Learning
• Student Services
• Shared Operational Services
• Developing Partnerships

Quality, efficiency, and cost containment are the hallmarks of ISDs as they help districts share services in technology, instruction, transportation, business, communication and support services, teacher and school staff training, and purchasing. ISDs are often key partners in local economic development through their community ties with colleges and universities, businesses, industries, and human service agencies. ISDs offer literally thousands of training sessions each year to educators, keeping them up on the latest research and teaching methods.

Local school districts depend on ISDs to meet ever-growing needs in early childhood education, special education, career and technical education, career preparation, early college learning, math and science programs, student activities, adult education programs, and more. ISDs also help local districts follow and meet often-complex state and federal education standards and requirements.
