Dear Wayne-Westland Students, Staff and Families,
As we remember and reflect on the tragic events at Oxford High School last November, let us take a moment to offer our support to their entire community. On Nov. 30, 2021, devastation struck Oxford High School, shaking students, educators and parents in Michigan and across the nation. Please join me in remembering the students who lost their lives that day: Madisyn Baldwin, Tate Myre, Hana St. Juliana and Justin Shilling.
One year later, it is still difficult to comprehend this tragedy. We know there will be an increase in news coverage and social media postings this week regarding Oxford. Unfortunately, this tragedy is also a sobering reminder that terrible events can happen anywhere at any time.
Hello William D. Ford Career-Technical Center Students, Families, and Staff,
Thanksgiving provides time and space for reflection. FordCTC staff has worked purposefully over the past year to elevate the service and opportunities that we provide to students. Our students are already benefitting from the work focused on the development of new programs that prepare students for high wage careers, the commitment to outcomes based learning that provide students with industry certifications and articulated college credits, and the establishment of business and industry partnerships that provide students with opportunities to build their professional networks.
