Romulus Community Schools Administrative offices

The previous superintendent, Marjie McAnally, was placed on administrative leave in February 2019 for a "break down in relations [between the board and administration]" which has heavily effected the growth of positive change for better education for students during most of her tenure. An investigation for possible termination is ongoing.[1]

As of Summer 2013, the Inkster Public Schools District was entirely dissolved.[2] The Romulus school district absorbed some of the Inkster boundary.[3] Students south of Michigan Avenue and west of Middlebelt were rezoned to Romulus.[4]

The district serves most of Romulus, portions of Inkster, and a portion of Westland; the Westland portion was formerly in the Inkster school district.[5][6][7]
