Learn about the May 5, 2026, Special Education Facilities Bond proposed by the Ingham Intermediate School District here.

School of Choice is for students who do not reside in our district but live in Ingham or an adjacent county but would like to attend WCS. The application window has not been set at this time, but it is usually in mid-May through early June. We have started compiling a list of students who would like to be sent an application when they become available.  Those on the list will receive an application by email.  To be considered, the entire application(s) must be returned to the Superintendent's Office before the school of choice window closes.

If you would like to receive an application, please contact Rachel Foster today at fosterr@gowcs.net or by phone 517.655.4361 x5116.

School Cancellation Process, 2025 - 2026

The safety of students is the foremost consideration when evaluating if school should be canceled. There are several variables that inform the final decision.

1. An early morning report from our Director of Facilities and Operations on road conditions 

2. Input from law enforcement, the road commission, and/or staff from neighboring districts

3. Consultation with Superintendents from other Ingham County Districts

4. Forecasted weather conditions for the remainder of the day

If the temperature is sustained 20 degrees or more below zero (with or without wind chill), school will be automatically canceled.
