Zemmer orientation moves to Rolland-Warner

Because of construction complications, plans to open the new Zemmer Middle School to student tours on Aug. 26 and Aug. 30 have been cancelled.

The building will not be open to students until the first day of school on Sept. 7.

Zemmer students will be able to pick up their class schedules and orientation packets from noon to 7 p.m. on Aug. 26 (last names from A-L) and Aug. 30 (M-Z) in the gymnasium at Rolland-Warner Middle School, 333 DeMille Boulevard, Lapeer. (Rolland-Warner students also will be able to pick up their schedules and orientation packets on the same days in the cafeteria.)

Only certified school district staff will be allowed into Zemmer prior to a state fire and building inspection, scheduled to take place on Sept. 2. No students, parents or other members of the public can enter the building until the inspections take place.

Both the state fire marshall and the state building inspector will not be able to visit Zemmer until Sept. 2 because of scheduling conflicts.

“We want to assure parents and all of our students that we will provide plenty of support for students to find their classrooms and navigate our new building on the first day of school," said Zemmer Middle School Principal Matt Olson.
