4 www.detroitk12.org LETTER from the SUPERINTENDENT
Dear Detroit Public Schools Community District Family,
I hope this letter finds you and your families well. As I write this, please know that all district employees are excited to see you and your students in person this Fall, especially our teachers! Based upon many conversations with our families and the greater community, I know the hardships due to the COVID-19 pandemic are lingering and we are still coping with its challenges. As a district, we will continue to do everything we can to support your children and our families as we move to the other side of the pandemic. As we direct our focus to the next school year, we are as prepared and focused as ever to reengage your child in person academically, socially, emotionally, and athletically/artistically.
With the exception of students who excelled last year online by having fewer than 18 absences, passed all of their second semester classes, and/or have a medical waiver to learn online, all students will be expected to return in person in the Fall. We know that most students will thrive when they return to school in person. This school year, with an additional $1.2 billion in COVID-19 Relief funding, we will have fully staffed classrooms, smaller class sizes, more technology for your child, expanded after school programs, and a nurse and mental health support at each school. We are also continuing to expand our literacy support with more small groups and one-to-one support for students who are below grade level. These additional investments will ensure that your child is better supported in the Fall.
Although the COVID-19 vaccine and testing are readily available for individuals 12 years of age or older, the District will continue to take rigorous safety precautions in every building and on buses for employees, students, and families. This will include weekly COVID-19 testing, daily temperature and symptom checks, smaller class sizes, maintaining three feet of social distance, deep cleaning of classrooms and offices, individual employee access to fans and air purifiers, and ample access to soap and hand sanitizers. DPSCD will continue to be a leading district and organization in the safety and health of students as we return to school in the Fall. Nothing is more important to us than your child’s health and safety.
I am personally excited to see you in the Fall! It has been a difficult year for all of us, including me. Nothing makes me more optimistic than knowing we can serve our students in person again next Fall. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me, your principal, or our district team. We are looking forward to seeing you on the first day of school, September 7, 2021!
Sincerely, Dr. Nikolai P. Vitti, Ed. D. Superintendent, Detroit Public Schools Community District

Detroit Public Schools Community District (DPSCD) is planning to open all schools this fall and will launch its new Virtual School. At school buildings and district offices, strict safety measures will continue to be implemented to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus and any variants in schools and on buses. Under the leadership of the Board of Education and Superintendent Dr. Nikolai Vitti, DPSCD will continue to work closely with local and state health officials and seek recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS).
Please review with your child(ren) the safety guidance that will be implemented for the fall return to school.
• DPSCD will require universal mask wearing in buildings for all employees, students, staff, and visitors, regardless of vaccination status. • DPSCD will provide full Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) that will include face masks, face shields, hand sanitizer/wipes, protective gowns, shoe covers and gloves. Supplemental cleaning services, room fans and air purifiers will be available upon request. • All employees will be required to participate in weekly school based COVID saliva testing, with parental consent, students will also be tested weekly. The testing will occur at schools and at the DPSCD central office. • Other safety mitigation measures to be in place include daily symptom and temperature checks for students and staff, desks that are placed three feet apart for social distancing, small class sizes, safety directives and reminder signage throughout all school buildings. (We will closely monitor for any CDC updates and implement accordingly.) • Deep cleaning of classrooms and buildings as well as administrative checks on cleaning results and regular review of procedures. • Contracted nurse on duty at all DPSCD schools • School buses will be deep cleaned. Masks must be worn while on the bus. Social distance seating will be practiced on all school buses. The District’s priority will remain on the health and well-being of our students, teachers, and staff.
DPSCD, in collaboration with the Detroit Federation of Teachers, has entered into a safe learning agreement and are committed to the safety of all students, teachers, staff and families. We know we have faithfully implemented and adhered to these standards, and we thank you for working with us and your school community to help prevent the spread of COVID-19 and any variants.
Students Rise. We All Rise. 7 OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT
MEETING ACADEMIC NEEDS IN PERSON AND VIRTUALLY
DPSCD is committed to investing in our students academic needs during our recovery year as we work toward re-emerging into the reform work as outlined in the Blueprint 2021 Strategic Plan. This school year, principals attended a rigorous week-long Academy to help teachers and support staff focus on intentionally supporting students who may be behind or need extra support. The District will focus on the most crucial reforms for re- engaging students and recovering losses sustained during the pandemic; this will be done by maximizing once-in- a-generation funds to address structural barriers to student success. Below is an outline of what this year has in store to accomplish academic goals which will be outlined by your school upon return. ENSURE ACCESS TO GRADE Scheduling and instructional materials will provide access to meaningful on-grade level work, while systematically LEVEL LEARNING & ACADEMIC addressing unfinished learning from the pandemic in Tier 2 and 3 intervention and credit recovery during the school day. INTERVENTION
RADICALLY IMPROVE THE Our high school students deserve dynamic learning environments and empowering coursework. It is time for us to think HIGH SCHOOL EXPERIENCE differently about the high school experience inside and outside of the classroom, with students guiding the reform.
Maintaining smaller in person class sizes for social distancing will also allow educators to work more closely with REDUCE CLASS SIZE students as they address unfinished learning from the pandemic.
CONTINUE TO INVEST IN OUR Funding bonuses for staff will help DPSCD meet family demand to learn in person and recognize staff for their contributions. Teachers will receive $2,000 hazard pay for teaching in person and an additional $2,000 will be paid EMPLOYEES for teachers who are teaching in person and in the new Virtual School.
TAILOR PROFESSIONAL We will continue to support educators with professional learning to maximize academic resources in F2F (face to LEARNING face) and online settings.
CENTRALIZE VIRTUAL DPSCD will offer virtual learning in a centralized way for families who are not yet ready for F2F, while allowing LEARNING schools to focus on just one learning model at a time.
TRADITIONAL F2F SCHOOLS K-12 DPSCD VIRTUAL SCHOOL
All brick-and-mortar schools will focus on offering safe, F2F learning, Given recent developments with the pandemic, families interested in the virtual school rather than dividing their attention between multiple learning can apply to it even if they did not meet previously announced academic and attendance models. A separate virtual school will be offered PreK-12 with separate thresholds while learning online in 20-21. administrators, teachers, some support, and students. Students must commit to the Virtual School for at least a full semester.
There are not enough staff to offer a full F2F and virtual schedule to Students who enroll in the Virtual School will have their seat saved at their original school the following students and programs: ESE, ELL, CTE, dual language, for one school year. However, the student will be enrolled at the Virtual School, with Virtual Montessori, and most electives and advance courses. Therefore, the School teachers and administrators, not educators from their home school. latter students will be in person or learn through in person instruction online (blended learning). Any student wishing to participate in F2F extracurriculars, including athletics, should enroll, or stay enrolled, in a brick-and-mortar school, where these opportunities will be present. Exemptions for those who had a 90% attendance rate and passed all their courses last year.
Please work with your child’s school for more details. For school information, please visit detroik12.org. 8 www.detroitk12.org WHOLE CHILD COMMITMENT
EXCITED TO WELCOME STUDENTS BACK TO SCHOOL
When DPSCD schools open on September 7, 2021, students will be warmly greeted by school leaders, teachers, and staff, excited to have students back in school, ready to learn. It’s time to add fun back into learning while addressing the needs of our students to prevent barriers that prevent or inhibit learning.
In concert with the District’s Whole Child Commitment Priority, students will once again enjoy and see expanded arts, music, and STEM activities all while learning in smaller class sizes.
The District established and trained school health teams at each school and will continue to expand staffing for school social workers and counselors. In addition, school nurses will offer a wide range of health benefits to students. The services they provide include triaging and screening for health issues, distribution of daily medications, intervention in emergency situations, monitoring the isolation room, assistance coordinating care for acute or chronic issues, and more.
Partnerships with Detroit Wayne Integrated Health Network and the University of Michigan will continue and expand to focus on mental health and trauma-informed practice. Each school will be paired with a partner agency which will then work with students individually or in small groups as needed. Services that families can expect for the coming school year include support for depression and anxiety as well as small group and individual Cognitive Behavioral Therapy sessions, with parental consent, to name a few. Please work with your child’s administrative team to learn about the support programs offered.
Please visit www.detroitk12.org/enroll or contact the school nearest to you to enroll. Rise up with DPSCD!
Students Rise. We All Rise. 9 ATHLETICS
EXPANDING ATHLETICS MAKING SCHOOL FUN
Extra-curricular activities such as a robust athletics program is part of DPSCD’s legacy. DPSCD is home to legendary athletes such as Jerome (The Bus) Bettis, Henry (Gray Ghost) Carr and many others. Just have a chat with DPS alumni Dr. John Telford to understand the depth of a winning bench.
This year we will continue the legacy. Families can anticipate several enhancements to include boys’ and girls’ soccer, fast growing lacrosse, golf, tennis, girls competitive cheer and boys wrestling. These new programs provide an opportunity for student athletes to excel in the classroom and in competition, opening a door to college scholarships, highly sought-after athletic careers and who knows, maybe an Olympic medal.
Along with the programming expansion, DPSCD athletics will make needed facilities improvements including resurfacing running tracks, installing new scoreboards and other capital enhancements while focusing on athletic development by adding additional coaching positions for existing sports. With its rich and storied history in athletics, DPSCD looks forward to welcoming your child to our rosters.
Pierre Brooks II is an example of how DPSCD helps to mold its student athletes to rise in competition as well as in the classroom and in our community. As a model team player, not only did he lead the Frederick Douglass Academy Hurricanes to the Div. 4 boys basketball state championship in the spring 2021, Pierre succeeded in the classroom. He will attend school this fall at Michigan State University on a full scholarship to play basketball and study business. He has a great future ahead, including plans to give back to the community. Congratulations to Pierre and all our DPSCD student athletes who use their athletic gifts to gain an education and build lifelong relationships. You can learn more about DPSCD’s athletic programming, by visiting www.detroitk12.org and clicking the athletics tab.
10 www.detroitk12.org EXCEPTIONAL TALENT
ON THE RISE ACADEMY
On the Rise Academy is the first of its kind, District-led alternative teacher certification program in Michigan. Aspiring teachers (Fellows) started this summer to become full time teachers in DPSCD in elementary, secondary math and science. Meanwhile, continuing teachers (currently certified teachers who want to earn an endorsement in another subject area) will begin in the fall.
The program is free for Fellows who commit to teaching in DPSCD long-term and uses a practice-based model of teacher preparation that immerses participants in authentic field-based experiences to support rapid learning and development. Once Fellows complete their initial training and requirements, they’ll be eligible for an Interim Teaching Certificate and the District’s new starting salary of $51,071 for certified teachers, the highest starting salary for new teachers in the state.
One key goal of On the Rise Academy is to provide a route to teaching certification for our own employees. This year, 215 candidates applied for 62 Fellow spots and 70% of the Fellows are current DPSCD employees. In addition, On the Rise Academy’s inaugural cohort is 82% Black/African American and 87% non-white, closely mirroring the DPSCD student population. 23% of our cohort identifies as Black Male compares to 13% of current DPSCD teachers. The On the Rise Academy is an example of DPSCD’s priority of developing Exceptional Talent by building an excellent team of educators who our largely home grown and ready to serve our students.

12 www.detroitk12.org FAMILY AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
FAMILY AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT ENGAGING FAMILIES AND STUDENTS TO SUPPORT YOUR RISE
This summer, the Office of Family and Community Engagement (FACE) team visited more than 20,000 homes by the end of July and was on pace to visit all families to ensure students and families were ok and if not, the teams provided much needed support. The FACE team will continue to keep families and students needs first in the upcoming school year. FACE will offer parents a myriad of resources and opportunities to successfully return to school in the fall.
Look forward to FREE courses for parents both in-person and virtually, in schools and in and around the community. Workshops will include smart ways to support your child’s success at school and at home as well as fun ways to build your own social support network through social media works, book clubs, Painting with a Twist, crochet clubs, and parent support groups. FACE will continue its home visits and canvassing efforts to check in on our families and provide needed resources such as mobile tech support in partnership with our Office of Technology. Interested parents can be trained and earn a stipend to assist with district canvassing initiatives.
Building and supporting PTAs, School Advisory Council’s and other stakeholder groups will continue as a platform for helping our students’ success. Each school will have a Parent Outreach Coordinator to support parents. We will also launch a DPSCD Student Leadership Institute offering programs that parents and students can engage in together. We will also expand Kindergarten Bootcamp, another platform for parents and incoming students to engage together at the start of your child’s education career.
FACE will facilitate the recruitment and onboarding of volunteers districtwide, using the expansion of our Alumni building efforts along with our broad parent community to fill school needs throughout the school year.
For more information, please call 313-873-7490 or email Ms. Collette Carleton at [email protected].
Students Rise. We All Rise. 13 CAREER AND TECHNICAL EDUCATION
CAREER AND TECHNICAL EDUCATION PREPARING STUDENTS FOR CAREERS AND WORK
Our goal is to connect students to their passion through real-world experiences. Career Technical Education (CTE) students apply their learning through hands-on training, project learning, job shadowing, and paid internships. Students graduate from high school with industry credentials ready for work or advanced studies.
New for the 21-22 school year, CTE will be offering a Machine Tool (CNC) program at Southeastern High School’s Advanced Manufacturing Academy. Advanced Manufacturing is a growing career field and, in conjunction with several partners, the District wants to position our students to be ready for these in-demand, high-wage jobs of the future. The program represents the continual expansion of manufacturing courses for students. Southeastern students will take courses at Golightly CTC where they will learn in renovated learning spaces and train on newly purchased Intelitek industrial equipment.
The District has three CTE Centers offering the following:
BREITHAUPT CTC: Automotive Service, Collision Repair, Hospitality & Food Services/Culinary, Cosmetology, Mechatronics, and Welding. GOLIGHTLY CTC: Graphics and Printing, Aeronautical Flight/Drone Training, Hospitality & Food Service/Culinary, Welding, and Machine Tool (CNC) Construction and Building Trades, Electrical, HVAC, Painting and Interior Design, Welding, Marketing and Entrepreneurship, RANDOLPH CTC: Line Worker (Energy)
Please see the directory in the back of the guide for more information for each of the CTE Centers.
DPSCD STUDENTS CAN ATTEND COLLEGE WITH DETROIT PROMISE SCHOLARSHIP
The Detroit Promise is a last-dollar scholarship that ensures all eligible Detroit residents who attend Detroit Public Schools Community District have a tuition-free path to an associate degree, bachelor’s degree, or technical certificate at participating academic institutions.
Interested students should check with their school to ensure that their desired degree or technical certificate is Pell- eligible. Programs that are not Pell-eligible cannot be covered by the Detroit Promise. Detroit Promise funding is not competitive; every student who registers and meets the requirements will receive funding if their college determines they have an eligible funding gap.
As a last-dollar scholarship, any Pell or TIP funding will always be applied to a student’s bill first. The Detroit Promise serves to cover any eligible funding gap.
• At two-year schools, the Detroit Promise will be billed for any remaining balance up to the full cost of tuition and mandatory fees*. • At four-year schools, any balance will be covered using gift aid as arranged by the participating institution and a contribution from the Michigan Education Excellence Foundation (MEEF).

14 www.detroitk12.org EXCEPTIONAL STUDENT EDUCATION/ MONTESSORI
EXCEPTIONAL STUDENT EDUCATION/ MONTESSORI PROGRAMMING DRIVES DEVELOPMENT OF SKILLS, INDEPENDENT LIVING
Providing opportunities for outstanding achievement by our students is a DPSCD priority. This is particularly poignant for the District’s Office of Exceptional Student Education or ESE, formerly known as Special Education.
For the 2021-2022 school year, DPSCD will enhance its Essential Skills Transition Program (ESTP), to further meet our ESE students and families where they are. ESTP prepares young adults with disabilities, ages 18-26, while promoting progression from K-12 education. It also drives activities in education/training after graduation, with such steps as gaining employment, living independently, and being involved in the community.
More information on DPSCD’s Exceptional Student Education can be found at www.detroitk12.org/ese.
MONTESSORI UPDATE
DPSCD’s Montessori Program offers a unique learning experience for students. Students are engaged in student-centered learning through hands-on experiences, a focus on social responsibility, and engaged communal learning that promotes collaboration, critical thinking, and creativity. We believe our Montessori program is second to none and offers the opportunity for all students to reach their fullest potential!

The Office of Early Childhood ensures that all children have access to high-quality early learning programs and enter kindergarten prepared for success.
We ensure that all early childhood outcomes include:
• Children thriving • Children are developmentally ready to succeed in school • Children are prepared to succeed by achieving appropriate grade level reading proficiencies
We provide a free, high-quality early learning experience for students who are four years old by December 1st of the current school year through The Great Start Readiness Program (GSRP), a state-funded pre-kindergarten program for four-year-old children. The program is sponsored by the Michigan Department of Education (MDE) and administered by Wayne RESA. Maximum class size is 18 students. Early childhood students attend school four days per week (M-TH). The program provides educational, health, mental health, and parental involvement services. Students selected for the Great Start Readiness Program must meet income guidelines.
