Information Enclosed
Are you looking for a safe, nurturing school
environment for your children? If so, you may
want to seriously consider the offerings of
Dearborn Heights No. 7. We currently have 1,300
non-resident students attending our schools. We
think that we make a difference, and obviously,
so do others outside of our residential area.
As we begin to plan for the 2017-18 school
year, our enrollment will be unlimited for students
K-11, with limited enrollment for grade 12.
The registration period for grades K-11
will be Monday, April 10 through Friday,
August 18, 2017. The registration period for
grade 12 will be Monday, April 24 through
Friday, May 12, 2017.
We understand the importance of pre-planning
for families and for the school system. Parents
should also be aware that once a non-resident
student is admitted into District 7 Schools, they
are entitled to stay until the student graduates
from high school, pending appropriate behavior.
This brochure highlights various aspects and
programs of the Dearborn Heights No. 7 School
District. Please contact us if we can answer any
further questions.
We are a small, suburban district that
consists of three elementary schools,
one middle school and one high school.
