INGHAM ACADEMYFAMILY CENTER

Ingham AcademyFamily Center is a public high school that is part of the Lansing Public School District school district, located in LANSING, MI with about 72 students offering grade levels from 7th Grade to 12th Grade.

Ingham Academy is a specialized educational facility located in Lansing, Michigan, operated in partnership between the Ingham Intermediate School District (ISD) and the Ingham County Circuit Court’s Family Division. The school is designed to serve middle and high school students who have become involved with the juvenile justice system or who require a more structured, therapeutic, and academically focused environment than a traditional public school setting can provide. By integrating academic instruction with behavioral support and rehabilitative services, the academy aims to keep students on track for graduation while addressing the underlying factors contributing to their legal or behavioral challenges.

The educational model at Ingham Academy emphasizes small class sizes and personalized learning plans, allowing teachers to provide targeted interventions for students who may have experienced academic gaps. Beyond the standard curriculum, the school integrates social-emotional learning and restorative justice practices to help students develop accountability, decision-making skills, and personal growth. By maintaining a close connection to the court system and community resources, the academy functions as a bridge, striving to transition students back into their home school districts or toward post-secondary opportunities with the tools necessary to succeed.
