Dear Delta Center Families,

As we wrap up this incredible school year, I just want to take a moment to say thank you. Your support, encouragement, and partnership have meant so much and truly helped make this year a great one. Because of you, our students had a positive and enriching experience—and we couldn’t have done it without you!

I am incredibly proud of our Delta Center staff—their dedication, passion, and commitment to student growth have been truly inspiring. Together, as a school community of students, families, and staff, we’ve accomplished meaningful milestones and supported one another every step of the way.

A special thank you goes to our incomparable Delta Center PTO. The hours upon hours of work they’ve dedicated to planning and carrying out fundraising events have enriched our students’ experiences in incredible ways. This year’s Fun Run laid a strong foundation for so many additional opportunities—like the Glow Party, assemblies, field trips, classroom materials, our school carnival, EPIC Day, and so much more. We are deeply grateful for their efforts, your generous donations, and your endless support through volunteering to help this organization—all of which help take our students' experiences to the next level.

Good luck to all of our fourth grade students heading on to Hayes. We will miss you all but we know you will do great things!  

As we head into summer break, I wish you a season filled with joy, rest, and time with loved ones. You’ve earned it!

Thank you once again for an incredible school year. I look forward to welcoming you back in the fall, ready for another exciting year of learning and growth.

Warmly,
Teresa Dyer
Principal, Delta Center Elementary

Kindergarten Enrollment

If you have a new student to enroll in BK or Kindergarten for the 2025 - 2026 school year, please contact Mrs. Reiber at 517-925-5681. Once your child is registered, you will be invited to attend ONE parent meeting. During the parent meeting, we will discuss our BK and K programs, kindergarten curriculum, expectations, preferred school supplies, and other important information to help you and your child prepare for their kindergarten year. Your child must be registered before attending a parent meeting; we ask that you attend only ONE parent meeting. If you have not yet enrolled your child for BK / Kindergarten, please use this link: Enroll Today!

Any medication we have here at the school will need to be picked up on or before 6-6-25 before 12:30pm with the exception that your child is attending summer learning, in that case we can transfer the medication to the summer learning program. Medication that is not picked up will be properly disposed of according to district policy/guidelines.

I have sent home new paperwork for next year in your child's backpack. 

Please note, we do need a new full packet filled out every school year. Some  paperwork is doubled-sided. Please be sure all signatures are provided. We also need the medication provided to have a recent up to date prescription label on the box or bottle. 

If you have any questions, please call me. 

Thank you!

Volunteering & Chaperoning

Persons wishing to volunteer for Grand Ledge Public Schools are required to complete the Volunteer Registration Form and be approved prior to serving as a volunteer.  All volunteers MUST check in at the office to receive a BADGE prior to proceeding to any other area on school property.  Please visit District Volunteer Application to complete the process.

Please note: the background check takes a few days to process, so submit your application in advance based on your volunteer plans. 

If your student will be moving to a different school next year, be sure to select both their current school and the school they’ll be attending.
For example: If your child is currently in 4th grade at Delta Center and will attend Hayes next year, select Delta Center and Hayes on the application. This ensures you’ll be cleared to volunteer at both locations when needed. Applications are valid for one calendar year.
