East Jordan Public Schools is looking to the future of our community pool, and we want to hear from you!
We recognize how important this facility is to our community and value the input of those we serve. As we work toward sustainable staffing, programming, and hours of operation, your feedback will help guide our decisions.
Whether you're a regular pool patron, have participated in the past, or haven't had the opportunity because programming or hours didn't meet your needs, your voice matters!
Our goal is to provide a community pool that best serves the interests and needs of our students, families, and the broader East Jordan community.
Please complete our Community Pool Interest Survey:

The survey will remain open through Friday, October 23, 2026.
Please help us spread the word! Share this survey with friends, family, neighbors, and others throughout our community. The more feedback we receive, the better we can plan for the future.
Thank you for your continued support and for helping us shape the future of the East Jordan Community Pool!
One Team – One Mission

Homecoming Update
Tonight’s football game against Benzie Central has been canceled because Benzie does not have enough athletes available to field a team. The pulled pork dinner fundraiser has also been canceled.
The Homecoming parade will still take place tonight at 5:00 p.m. on Main Street, and the Homecoming dance will be held Saturday, October 3, as planned.
The Homecoming King and Queen will be announced at next week’s home football game.
Thank you for your understanding. We hope to see everyone at tonight’s parade to celebrate our students and show your East Jordan spirit!
East Jordan Public Schools is hiring a Pool Director for the East Jordan Community Pool! From PE classes and swimming lessons to swim club and community programs, our pool brings people of all ages together.
We’re looking for an organized, dependable leader with ideas for expanding programs, increasing participation, and helping our pool grow as a community resource.
See the attached job posting for qualifications and application details. Please share to help us find our next Pool Director!

We recognize that the sudden staffing changes at the East Jordan Community Pool have created uncertainty for our patrons, parents, families, and community members. Questions about programming, access, and what comes next are understandable.
These circumstances were not anticipated, and while we do not yet have all the answers, please know that the pool and the people it serves remain important to East Jordan Public Schools. We value the role the pool plays in providing recreation, instruction, fitness, rehabilitation, and connection for people of all ages.
The District is actively working through the immediate staffing needs and considering the best path forward. This is a priority, and we will communicate additional information as soon as plans become clearer.
If you know someone who is lifeguard certified, has experience working in a pool setting, or may be interested in becoming certified, please encourage them to contact the Superintendent’s Office. We would welcome the opportunity to have a conversation.
We appreciate your patience, understanding, and support as we navigate this unexpected transition. Challenges can also create opportunities, and we are confident that, with the support of our community, we will find a positive path forward.
All CDL classes are fully reimbursed after passing. A background check and quarterly random drug testing are required.
