Adams STEM Academy media center a make-over
Employees of the Ypsilanti Target Store spent Aug. 17 giving the Adams STEM Academy media center a make-over. The project was funded through a grant that Target received to assist a local school with a project of their choice. The media center was the targeted project and a wall mural, window art and colorful accessories were added to the area.

Reminder to parents:
When you have a change in your phone number, it's imperative that you update your phone number with your child's school. A phone number is critical for contacting parents/guardians when a child is sick, has an emergency, missed the school bus or has an unexcused absence. An undated phone number also assures parents that they will receive important information through our automated phone system regarding school closings, special events or message from the Superintendent. Thank you for keeping the home-school connection current.
