Southfield Public School District

Funding structure, how it compares to peers, and where major projects stand.

What is Southfield's Board considering?

Board-directed public school district

Southfield Public School District is governed by its Board of Education. The collected Board agendas show regular work on academic progress, staffing, facilities, school programs, and the district budget.

Public meetings

The district posts Board agendas in BoardBook and retains linked minute PDFs.

Facilities and bond work

Agendas list bond-funded work at Adler Elementary, Levey Middle, Southfield A&T, Thompson K-8, Birney K-8, and University K12.

Budget cycle

The June 30, 2026 agenda lists an FY26 final budget amendment and FY27 proposed budget presentation.

Many collected minutes are image-only scans, so agendas establish what was scheduled but do not by themselves prove every final action.
