This week we hosted our annual New Staff Orientation and were excited to welcome 16 new teachers, 3 paraprofessionals, 2 security team members, and our newest athletic trainer (making two full time ATs supporting Warrior athletes!).
We’re thrilled to have these amazing new team members join WBSD as they prepare for a great school year. And what better way to kick things off than with a photo alongside one of our new electric buses—a symbol of the future we’re building together! ⚡️
Let’s give our newest Warriors a warm welcome! 💪📚✏️

✅ Device protection plans for families
✅ Digital citizenship and online safety
✅ Our new AI Guide for students, parents, and staff
✅ How tools like School AI are enhancing — not replacing — teaching
Listen in to learn how WBSD is preparing students to succeed in a digital world while keeping safety front and center.

Let’s go Warriors! 💪 #WarriorPride

We’re thrilled to introduce the first-ever electric school buses in the history of the Woodhaven-Brownstown School District — two brand new Thomas Built “Jouley” EV buses! 🎉
This milestone was made possible through state and federal grant funding, helping us take a big step toward a cleaner, more sustainable future for our students and community. 🌱
Keep an eye out for our new EV buses driving around the district — you’ll see them transporting students to school, heading out on field trips, and making special appearances at local school events and Touch-a-Truck gatherings. 🚐💨
These buses aren’t just quiet and efficient — they’re a sign of our commitment to innovation, sustainability, and the health of our community.
