Be Part of Our Students' Rise!

  • What does learning at home look like for your family?

    Detroit Public Schools Community District wants to share your examples of at-home learning, testimonial and stories of inspiration during this mandated school closure. We want to see learning in action in core subjects, art, music and physical activity. Also, send us your bedtime stories from your favorite children's book.

    After review, your story may appear on our district website, social media or be a part of a bigger promotion through local media outlets.

Be The One!

  • Take a look at us. Right now. What do you see? We are everything that will be. We are an engine of progress that has been forged by generations. Driven by the knowledge that each student in every classroom has the potential to be “the one.” The one who will be their best self and inspire us all. The one who will join the legacy of those that came before them and be the pride of our community. We are teachers, parents and families that know if we are to rise, then everyone must do their part. We are a city that runs on ambition and grit, constantly retooled and ready for tomorrow – where change is constant, potential is limitless and hard work prevails. We know when students rise, we all rise. We are Detroit Public Schools Community District.
