Romulus Community School District
Romulus Community School District, also referred to as Romulus Community Schools (RCS), is a public school district in Romulus, Michigan in Metro Detroit. The district's Administration Offices & Transportation Department is located at 36540 Grant Road. The current Superintendent of Schools is Dr. Benjamin P Edmondson.
As of Summer 2013, the Inkster Public Schools District was entirely dissolved.[1] The Romulus school district absorbed some of the Inkster boundary.[2] Students south of Michigan Avenue and west of Middlebelt were rezoned to Romulus.[3]
The district serves most of Romulus, portions of Inkster, and a portion of Westland; the Westland portion was formerly in the Inkster school district.[4][5][6]
