Last fall a facilities task force was created to help the Lansing School Board figure out what to do with its aging buildings. In January, the group presented their recommendations to the board, however the fate of many of the districts buildings, including the high schools, remains unknown. The districts modernization plan is supposed to be presented later this month or early in April.

Lansing School Board President Peter Spadafore says all of the buildings in the district are in need of major repairs and that the students need a 21st century learning environment.
