During public comment, parent Brandi Cooper raised concerns about discipline and special education compliance and parent Michelle Wing expressed disappointment that ISD classrooms were moved to Vandercook Lake, highlighting community unease over services and access.

Two parents used the public-comment period at the June 8 meeting to raise concerns about special education services and an Intermediate School District (ISD) facility move. Brandi Cooper, identified in the minutes as a parent of a Michigan Center student, spoke about concerns involving discipline and the district’s special education compliance; her written statement was attached to the meeting record.

Separately, Michelle Wing — a parent of a student who uses the ISD room at Keicher — made an emotional statement expressing disappointment with the ISD’s decision to relocate those classrooms to Vandercook Lake. The minutes record these expressions of concern but do not document a board response or immediate follow-up action; staff or ISD officials may address the matters at a later date.
