Sexual Assault Statement

Sexual Assault Statement from YCS Regarding Social Media Thread

Please find an important message from the YCS Administration:

Ypsilanti Community Schools takes all claims of sexual assault or misconduct very seriously and is committed to providing safe environments for everyone in our YCS community.  We understand that there are allegations of a person who has had previous ties with Ypsilanti Community Schools on the #EMUExpose page.  We encourage anyone that is a victim of sexual assault or misconduct to contact a local police authority and file an incident report.  

All staff who work in the district go through a screening process with the Washtenaw County Sheriff’s Office (LiveScan) and/or through the Washtenaw Intermediate School District. Any volunteers who interact with our students or programs are screened using the Internet Criminal History Access Tool (Ichat).

Again, Ypsilanti Community Schools is committed to providing safe environments for all of our students and support our community stakeholders who may need to report an incident.
