Post Oak School is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Lansing Public School District school district, located in LANSING, MI with about 242 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 6th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families.

By leveraging the resources of the Lansing School District, the Post Oak School emphasizes individualized instruction and small class sizes to help students meet state graduation requirements. The program is designed to provide a more personalized approach to education, offering a pathway for students to overcome barriers to success and earn their diplomas.
