Superintendent
Welcome to Ypsilanti Community Schools.
The past few years have brought unprecedented changes to how education is delivered and experienced. These have been unusual and challenging school years, requiring flexibility, resilience, and care from everyone involved. Throughout it all, we have worked diligently to provide a safe, supportive, and engaging learning environment for our students and a safe workplace for our staff.
We are deeply grateful to our families and community for your continued partnership, patience, and shared commitment to doing what is best for our students. Your support has made a meaningful difference, and together, we continue to move forward—stronger together.
YCS - Education Department Parent Letter
As you may have heard, the President has signed an executive order instructing the U.S. Department of Education to begin the process of closing the agency. Understandably, this news has created uncertainty about the future of education at the federal, state, and local levels. First and foremost, we want to assure you that our top priority remains the education and well-being of our scholars.
Please refer to this letter from Superintendent Dr. Zachery-Ross: Link to letter with more information.
