The mission of the Van Buren Public Schools is to educate
children, youth,
and adults for full participation in a rapidly changing
society and to build
and maintain a learning community that improves
the quality of life. From preschool through adult education, our employees are dedicated to
fulfilling this mission and are proud to make a difference in the lives
of
our students and in our community on a daily basis.
Our goal is to educate all children.
We recognize that each child has
individual needs, and we will not leave any child behind. Incredible opportunities lie ahead, and our school board and our staff
are committed to work together as a team to give our community's children
the highest quality education possible.
The district has one preschool center, six elementary schools,
two middle
schools, one comprehensive high school and one
Alternative Education high school.
Staff members operate
under the direction of an elected seven-member Board of
Education which meets on the second and fourth Mondays of every month. We serve more than
5,900 students in preschool through twelfth grades and an
additional 143 students in our Adult/Community Education Program.
Our 74
square miles include the City of Belleville and parts of the Townships of
Van Buren, Sumpter, Canton, and Ypsilanti.
