Purpose
LISD TV is Lenawee County’s local educational access channel, broadcasting from the Center for Educational Materials and Technology (CEMaT) within the LISD Milton C. Porter Education Center.
As “Your Partner in Education for a Changing Tomorrow.” we provide educational broadcast programming to Lenawee County. LISD TV is broadcast on channel 22 for both D&P Communications and Comcast in Adrian, Madison, Tecumseh, Blissfield, Britton- Deerfield, Hudson and Morenci schools.
All material broadcast on the LISD TV must be educational or informational.
LISD TV is a powerful resource available to Lenawee County’s residence. We at LISD have the obligation to proper manage, provide content and utilize the broadcasting. The content includes preannouncement and post video or documentation of events and educational material deemed appropriate according to the guidelines. Any questions should be directed to LISD Media Technician at

Final Thoughts
Occasionally, a situation occurs where there must be some latitude given within the guidelines to achieve optimal communication.
