Welcome To William D. Ford Career-Technical Center

Dear Career Tech Students and Families,

In the next three to four weeks, most of the students at Ford Tech will be taking a post-secondary credential test. It's crucial to emphasize the significance of putting in effort and energy into these tests, as they are not just checkpoints, but another chance to progress towards a career pathway.

By dedicating oneself, working hard, and focusing, one can use this earned credential as a stepping stone for a career in an industry they are passionate about. These passed exams will validate a student's expertise and competence in their chosen field. This is the time to be serious and end the school year with even more options.

Best wishes for success,

Stephanie Bigelow M.A., L.P.C.

Event and Registration Information

For Mental Health Awareness Month, we have an opportunity to break the stigma around mental health in our campus by talking openly, compassionately, and kindly to each other. No one should ever struggle alone.

Greetings Wayne-Westland Families.  

As the end of the school year draws closer, students and staff are gearing us for the last day of school just over one month away. To keep students engaged in learning all summer, he district is planning comprehensive summer learning programs. 

Students and staff face unique challenges in today's fast-paced, technology-driven world, which can significantly impact mental health. This year, our district has brought significant attention to mental health and the importance of self-care. From our opening session with teachers on day one, we have focused on seeking resources as we navigate a challenging environment.

We are excited to share an overview of the vibrant educational landscape at Wayne-Westland Community Schools. Our goal is to make sure every student feels supported and cared for. By teaming up with local businesses, companies, and colleges, we can offer students amazing chances to do well in school, sports, art, science, and health programs. Here is a glimpse into some impactful initiatives and partnerships that make Wayne-Westland Community Schools unique.
