A recap of the February 23, 2026 Board meeting, including a presentation from Beagle, an update from Dr. Barnes on his evaluation areas, and a new program to help teachers get ASD certified.

Plans for Original Wacousta are firming up for the Grand Ledge Area District Library and the Wacousta Cooperative Preschool.

At our January 26 Board meeting, we heard some phenomenal updates. The takeaways:

• We’re repurposing Original Wacousta for some really cool projects

• The Dave and Betty Morris Center is coming to life

• Thanks to hard work, planning, and responsibility we saved taxpayers $1.8 million

• Holbrook is already showing growth with a new reading and writing curriculum

Today, I’m excited to share that I am running for reelection to the school board.

I’m running because steady leadership matters. Grand Ledge Public Schools is a growing destination for families, and we want to keep pushing forward.

I’m grateful for the trust you’ve placed in me, and I would be honored to continue serving our community.
