Southfield Public Schools

The Community Schools model is transforming the way we support students, teachers, and families by creating a support system and tight-knit community along the way. Southfield Public Schools, Stevenson Elementary, a United Way for Southeastern Michigan Community School, recently hosted the Michigan Schools Coalition site visit on the impact of Community Schools. Thank you to Lieutenant Governor Garlin Gilchrist II , Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, Senator Stephanie Chang , State Representative Natalie Price, State Representative Kimberly Edwards Principal Tonya Hickman, Superintendent Dr. Jennifer Green, and School Board President Ashanti Bland for your leadership, partnership, and ongoing support. #LiveUnited

Ballmer Group is excited to announce a new learning initiative in Southeast Michigan called Summer Discovery! We are partnering with United Way for Southeastern Michigan to lead the program, which was designed by Building Impact Partners.   Summer Discovery offers free learning and enrichment activities to students in grades K-8 living in Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb counties. We heard from parents and community members that there are not enough summer programs to serve all the children who want to attend. And there are barriers to accessing the programs that do exist, such as transportation and cost to families. Summer Discovery will help meet that need by providing schools with essential funding and support for instruction and enrichment activities tailored to qualifying K-8 students during the upcoming summer. The program is structured to provide students with exposure to career paths and offer unique learning experiences. To learn more, visit www.summerdiscoverymi.org.  

Something More... 💙 With every ribbon cutting ceremony we have there's always a sense of excitement and buzzing exuberance, as was the case for the #IraLandFamilyHealthCenter, 🌟 located inside #StevensonElementarySchool. But, there was something more with this event... as the family, friends, and #community members of Dr. Ira Land poured into the space, one could feel the synergy and significance of the dedication. Moving tributes and testimonies of Dr. Land's giving and thoughtful nature together with gracious congratulatory statements and testimonies about the new #schoolbasedhealthcenter, named in his honor, at times brought forth raw emotions but mostly feelings of #joy and happiness. We could not have found a more welcoming school and team to house the center in than Stevenson Elementary School and the Southfield Public Schools who are as dedicated to #excellence as we are! We welcome you to visit! Call 📱 (313) 824-1000 for more information or to make an appointment. 🗣Stay tuned! More pics of this momentous occasion to come! #AuthorityHealth #childrenshealth #communityhealth #southfieldmi #michigan Jason Hoskins @City of Southfield Coretta Mosley Houge, MBA
