- Dearborn Public Schools
-
The Dearborn Public School district includes the entire city of Dearborn, Michigan and a small portion of Dearborn Heights. Dearborn Public Schools is the fourth largest school district in Michigan, serving 18,300 students.[1] The district had a $227 million budget for 2010.[2] Extensive bi-lingual programs in the district (where some schools have 90% Arabic-origin student populations) have caused concern with the county education agency issuing a report suggesting banning Arabic except where absolutely necessary.[3] State budget cuts in 2011 are expected to heavily impact special programs including bi-lingual education.
