Sand Creek Community Schools is a public school district in Lenawee County, Michigan. It serves parts of the townships of Dover, Fairfield, Madison, Ogden, Palmyra, and Seneca.[4]

History

Groundbreaking for Sand Creek Junior/Senior High School was on August 17, 1921. The building has been in continuous use since it opened. The school was the result of the consolidation of the small rural school districts in the area, reportedly the first district consolidation in Michigan. The building was modeled after Chesterfield High School in Oakshade, Ohio.[5]

The district's elementary school was built around 1959.[6] It was ultimately named for Ruth McGregor, principal of the district during the 1950s, when all grades were housed in the high school building.[7]
