Dear Logan Families, 

I’m excited to share some wonderful highlights from two recent events here at Logan! 

First, we had a fantastic visit from the Leslie Science and Nature Center. Students learned about cold-blooded animals, and each class had the opportunity to meet some animals including a turtle, lizard, and snake. Here are some photos of our visitors! 

We also want to congratulate all of the students who participated in our MLK Day assembly. Their performances were inspiring and beautifully honored the legacy of Dr. King. A huge thank you to Ms. Joslin, Logan’s Music Teacher, for her dedication and effort in helping the students prepare for such a wonderful and meaningful program.

Additionally, on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, our Logan community came together for a meaningful Service Day. Many families joined us in making blankets for the Ronald McDonald House and packing baskets for House N2 Home, an organization dedicated to supporting individuals transitioning from homelessness to stable housing. Thanks to all the families who volunteered their time and effort to make Service Day a success.

A special thank you to the Logan PTSO for their hard work in organizing both of these wonderful events. Your dedication and support truly make a difference in our community.

Young 5s/Kindergarten Round Up

As we enter the new year, it’s not too early to start thinking about some of our youngest students who will start their AAPS experience as kindergarten and young fives students in the fall of 2025. Kindergarten Round-Up events are scheduled throughout the month of February and March at all elementary schools and K-8 buildings. We are excited to share with families the fun that awaits your children, meet our school staff, learn about the programs, the enrollment process and get answers to your questions. 

Logan’s Round Up will be on Wednesday, February 12, 2025 from 6:00pm until 7:30pm. This event is designed for both children and adults. Families will have time to learn about our programs at Logan while children get to spend time in our classrooms with Logan’s incredible staff.  If you plan to enroll a child in either Young 5s or Kindergarten for the 2025-2026 school-year, we hope to see you there! Please help us spread the word if you know any families planning to attend Logan next year.

“New Logan” Update

2025 is going to be an exciting year for Ann Arbor Public Schools! Groundbreaking on the new Logan Elementary School will take place in Spring 2025; and a specific date will be announced in the new year. Updates regarding the construction timeline, what to expect on campus in the coming months, and safety and relevant school operational impacts will be posted on the website www.A2SchoolsBond.org. To sign up for AAPS Capital Program emails to receive updates, please use this link.

Here is an artist's rendering of the front of the new building

AAPS 2025-26 Enrollment

Neighborhood pre-enrollment for the 2025-2026 school year will open on Tuesday, January 7th. Students in grades Y5 through 12 who will be new to the AAPS district for the 2025-26 school year will be eligible to complete their pre-enrollment for their zoned school. Families can look up which school they are zoned for by accessing our Attendance Area by Street Directory. 

January 7th through February 13th will be the first In-District Transfer window open for the year for grades Y5, 9, 10, and 11 (IB only at Huron). In-District transfers are for those who live in the Ann Arbor Public Schools attendance area but seeking enrollment in a school that is not their zoned neighborhood school. 

***Families who are currently enrolled at Logan do not need to apply for In-District Transfer. Only families who wish to attend a different school would need to apply. 

Information about additional In-District Transfer and Schools of Choice windows will be posted on the Enrollment page when available. Questions can be directed to enroll@a2schools.org.
