COMMUNITY ED RESOURCE CENTER

Community Ed Resource Center is a public high school that is part of the Lake Orion Community Schools school district, located in LAKE ORION, MI with about 27 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 12th Grade. With about 24 teachers, Community Ed Resource Center has a student/teacher ratio of about 1:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

The Community Education Resource Center (CERC), located on East Scripps Road in Lake Orion, Michigan, serves as a multifaceted hub for the Lake Orion Community Schools district. Rather than functioning as a traditional K-12 classroom building, the facility acts as the administrative and operational heart for the district’s community-facing programs. It is designed to provide residents with lifelong learning opportunities, enrichment activities, and essential services that extend beyond the standard academic curriculum.

The center is central to the district’s mission of fostering community engagement by housing various departments and resource initiatives. Through its association with the Lake Orion school system, the CERC helps coordinate programs that cater to diverse age groups, ranging from early childhood development services to adult education and recreational activities. By serving as a bridge between the school district and the broader Lake Orion community, the center plays a vital role in supporting the district's goal of providing accessible, high-quality educational resources to all citizens.
