Delta Mills School

The first school in Delta Township was built in 1839 on what is now the corner of Delta River Drive and Ingersoll Road. The school was a one-room wood frame structure that could seat up to sixty-five students and the first school teacher was Lydia Ingersoll, daughter Moses Ingersoll. In 1940 the building was remodeled and a second classroom was added. The township district was annexed to the Grand Ledge School District in 1956. The old Delta Mills school building was replaced in 1958 with a modern 12 classroom structure that also included a gym, offices and a cafeteria. It was used by the Grand Ledge School District until 1982 then sold to the Lansing First Church of the Nazarene and used as a day care until approximately 2014.

In 2016, the Grand Ledge Public Schools repurchased the building and 11 acre property for approximately $260,000 with plans to remodel the building and open a second early childhood center.
