Crestwood Athletics

Dear Parents and Guardians,
You may have seen recent news regarding the Michigan state budget and the uncertainty around funding for universal free school meals.
We want to assure you that this will not impact our district. All of our schools will continue to provide free breakfast and lunch to all students, district-wide, for the 2025–2026 school year.

COUNT DAY IS COMING UP NEXT WEEK
Wednesday, October 1, 2025

Please ensure your student is in school every day.

Every student counts!

At this time, our soft lockdown has been lifted, and normal operations have resumed. Dearborn Heights Police have given us the all-clear. Thank you for your understanding and support.

Good Day Crestwood Community. At this time, all Crestwood schools are in a soft lockdown, which means that no visitors will be allowed in the schools and students must remain in the school. This is a request from the Dearborn Heights Police. None of our schools or students are in danger and the matter is not related to our schools. We will update the community as more information becomes available.

Please read this important letter from Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy addressing county-wide incidents of school threats and violence.

Thank you to all of our Crestwood families who joined us for the 2025 Back-to-School Kickoff! Despite the rainy weather, the celebration was a tremendous success as we gathered inside Crestwood High School for an evening filled with pride. Families enjoyed free backpacks, books, and activities, while students had a blast with bounce houses, crafts, balloon animals, and more.
Live performances from the Crestwood Band, Robotics, and our DJ brought great energy, and Chargie the Mascot kept the excitement high! We even had a surprise visit from Scout, our therapy dog and our Dearborn Heights Police Department! With delicious food trucks and the chance to connect with community partners, it was the perfect way to launch the 2025–2026 school year.
Thank you to all of our Parent Organizations for sponsoring the bounce houses and United Way-Southeast Michigan and Cummins Inc in Dearborn for the backpack donations. We also could not have done without the support of our National Honor Society students and custodial and maintenance staff. We are so proud of our community spirit and thankful for everyone who came out to celebrate. Here’s to a fantastic school year ahead!
