On November 5, 2024, voters will be asked to consider renewing a special education millage. If approved, the 12-year, 2.3826 mill renewal would cover unreimbursed special education costs. It would help keep $57 million in unrestricted general funds across Washtenaw County available for programs and services that could benefit every student, including approximately 3.4 million for Dexter students. There would be no tax rate increase. The renewal would maintain an existing 2.3826 mil tax.

We are very pleased to invite you and your family to join us for a very special field hockey game under the lights! Abby Tamer (Class of 2021), the first Olympic athlete to graduate from Dexter High School and the first U of M Field Hockey program Olympian, will be recognized at the Varsity field hockey game's halftime by the District and Community. Abby represents the epitome of a Dreadnaught scholar athlete with her focus, drive, and determination.
Admission is free for everyone! JV plays Pioneer at 5:30pm; Varsity pays Chelsea (in a state championship rematch!) at 7pm with recognition at halftime.
