April was a big month for our school community as students in grades 3–11 showed up and gave their best during State Testing! We know the days were long, schedules were adjusted, and flexibility was key—and we are so grateful for the support, patience, and partnership from our families every step of the way.

A special shoutout to all of our staff for their incredible behind-the-scenes work to make testing run smoothly—you can find our State Testing team and some of our week one teams featured in the photos!

We’d love to hear from you—what connections did your student make during testing? Did they get a chance to see any of their teachers or classmates in person? Share your experience in the comments!

Last month, our school community came together for an unforgettable District-Wide Field Trip to the Henry Ford Museum and the Ford Rouge Factory Tour!

We were thrilled to see so many of our families join us—some even traveling over five hours to be part of the experience. It was truly a special day of connection, exploration, and learning.

Families had the chance to dive into a fascinating Leonardo da Vinci exhibit, along with all the incredible displays that make the museum such a unique place to visit. Over at the factory tour, we discovered some amazing facts—like how a new truck rolls off the assembly line every 53 seconds, and that the Rouge Factory once held a Guinness World Records title for having the largest living roof!

Thank you to everyone who made the trip such a memorable experience—we loved seeing our community come together in such a big way! 🚗✨
