On March 6, 2020, the district broke ground on the building of Ludington Elementary School (LES). LES will service all students from preschool through fifth grade and will open its doors to students on January 4, 2022.

Thank you again for the supporting the 2019 Bond that made our beautiful new Ludington Elementary building possible! We were extremely excited to begin the bond work for the middle and high school that was planned to begin this upcoming March.

On December 9, 2021, a press conference was held at Ludington City Hall with many area law enforcement personnel and school leaders in attendance. Those at the press conference included Ludington Police Department, Mason County Sheriff’s Department, Michigan State Police, Ludington Area School District, Mason County Central Schools, Mason County Eastern Schools, and the Mason County Prosecuting Attorney among others. The purpose was to provide clear communication that we are all working together to make sure our students are safe each and every day.  Many times, these press conferences are held after an incident happens. Our goal was to be proactive and communicate the fact that school safety is at the forefront of everything we do and we are constantly reviewing our plans and procedures, especially in light of recent events.  Please know that at this time, there is no known active threat that has been made against the staff and students at Ludington Area School District.
