Our district is proud to partner with the Woodhaven Kiwanis Club for the Annual An Apple for Ryan food drive — honoring the legacy of Ryan Sergent by helping families in need across the Downriver community. 🥫💜
All WBSD schools — Bates, Erving, Gudith, Wegienka, Yake, Woodhaven Upper Elementary, Brownstown Middle, and Woodhaven High — are collecting non-perishable, kid-friendly foods.

🌟 Student Spotlight! 🌟
Evelyn Nichols, a 4th grader at Bates Elementary, was recognized at last night's WBSD Board of Education meeting for going above and beyond while riding the bus with a substitute driver. As the designated Safety, Evelyn took full charge of the seating process - guiding each student row by row to ensure everyone was properly seated.
Her leadership, maturity, and calm direction made the ride smoother and safer for everyone on board. 👏
Now that’s a student who truly knows the Warrior Way - showing responsibility, respect, and pride wherever she goes! 💜💛

Over the next two weeks, Woodhaven-Brownstown School District schools will be testing our new CrisisAlert safety system.
Neighbors and community members may see flashing lights or hear loud sirens during this time. Please know these are tests only and not real emergencies.
The safety of our students and staff remains our top priority as we take this important step in strengthening school security.









Today, we celebrate the principles of liberty, justice, and equality that continue to guide us, and we recognize those who have taken the meaningful step of becoming United States citizens.
As educators, we take this opportunity to inspire our students to explore the Constitution, understand its impact, and reflect on the rights and responsibilities it grants us all.
#ConstitutionDay #CivicEducation #WhyWBSD


As educators and community members, we have the responsibility to teach our students the values of compassion, strength, and togetherness—reminding them of the heroes who gave everything and the families who continue to carry their legacy.
Together, we stand united in remembrance and in hope for a future built on peace and understanding. 🕊️

🚌 A Friendly Reminder: Patience with Bus Transportation 🚌
As we move through the first weeks of school, we want to thank you in advance for your patience and understanding. Afternoon bus routes (and likely the remainder of this week) may run later than expected as students, families, and staff adjust to new routines and heavier traffic around our schools.
Our transportation team has been diligently preparing—drivers have been practicing these routes for over a week and are very familiar with them. It will, however, take a week or two before bus stop times consistently align with the posted schedules.
We appreciate your support as we work to ensure that all students get to and from school safely. Safety is always our top priority, and with time, the routes will smooth out and timing will become more reliable.
Thank you for your patience and partnership!
— Woodhaven-Brownstown School District Transportation Department
