Typically Detroit Public Schools Community District brings the students back after Labor Day, but Tuesday (May 10) night, the school board passed a change to the calendar. The school board decided that school would start a week earlier, on Aug. 29, as the change was made at the superintendent’s request. Dr. Nikolai Vitti sees it as a benefit for multiple reasons, including the opportunity for student recruitment ahead of the all-important October Count Day.
