March was a busy and exciting month across Wayne-Westland Community Schools! We had the pleasure of welcoming our newest students and families at our Young 5s and Kindergarten Round-Up events at all 10 elementary schools. It was exciting to meet so many new families and introduce them to our school community.
This spring our students will be taking the required annual state tests during the window of April 7, 2025 through May 15, 2025. Please click to review all of the testing details.

Dear Wayne-Westland Families,
As we progress further into the school year, I’m excited to share some positive updates from across the district. First and foremost, I’m proud to report that our district budget remains in a healthy position. This stability allows us to maintain our focus on our top priority—supporting our students and staff and helping them succeed in the classroom.
Dear Wayne-Westland Families,
The Wayne County Regional Enhancement Millage has been instrumental in supporting Wayne-Westland Community Schools, positioning us for continued success. This funding is vital for sustaining key educational programs, upgrading our facilities, and advancing technology, ensuring that our students receive a top-notch education in a safe and nurturing environment. The millage reflects our community’s commitment to fostering both the academic and personal growth of our students, creating a path toward a brighter future.
