DETROIT – Meet the people running to help shape the future of Detroit’s public schools in 2026 and beyond. CitizenDetroit’s 2026 DPSCD Candidate Video Series gives Detroit voters a chance to hear directly from the people running for the Detroit Public Schools Community District Board of Education. In short, focused interviews, candidates share their top priorities for Detroit students, what they hope to accomplish on the board, and what they wish they had seen in their own schools growing up.

CitizenDetroit invited all 34 candidates running this year to participate, and 25 candidates took part. Voters will be choosing candidates in two races: four seats are up in the regular election and one seat is being filled in a special election.

Hear directly from the candidates in their own words and learn more before Election Day on November 3, 2026.

Watch all 25 DPSCD candidate interviews on YouTube starting on Friday 9/18 by visiting https://www.youtube.com/@citizendetroit7575

About the Candidate Series

The DPSCD 2026 Candidate Video Series is a civic education project from CitizenDetroit designed to help Detroit voters get to know the people running for the Detroit Public Schools Community District Board of Education.

With 34 candidates running for five open seats, CitizenDetroit invited candidates to participate in short, focused video interviews. Twenty-five candidates took part, giving voters the opportunity to hear directly from them in their own words.

Each interview centers on two questions: what the candidate sees as a top priority for Detroit students and what they wish they had seen or experienced in their own schools when they were growing up. The goal is to move beyond names on a ballot and give voters a clearer sense of each candidate’s priorities, perspective, and connection to public education.

The series also helps provide context about the role of the school board and the progress and challenges facing Detroit’s public schools, making the election more accessible to voters who may not closely follow education policy or local school governance.

At its heart, the project is about informed participation. By making these interviews free and easy to watch online, CitizenDetroit hopes to give more Detroiters the information they need to make confident choices at the ballot box.

The DPSCD 2026 Candidate Video Series was produced by CitizenDetroit with support from The Kresge Foundation.

Serie de Videos de Candidatos de la Junta de DPSCD

DETROIT – Conoce a las personas que están corriendo para ayudar a moldear el futuro de las escuelas públicas de Detroit en 2026 y más allá. La serie de videos de candidatos de DPSCD 2026 de CitizenDetroit da a los votantes de Detroit una oportunidad de escuchar directamente de las personas que están corriendo para la Junta de Educación del Detroit Public Schools Community District. En entrevistas cortas y enfocadas, los candidatos comparten sus prioridades principales para estudiantes de Detroit, qué esperan lograr en la junta, y qué desearían haber visto en sus propias escuelas cuando crecían.

CitizenDetroit invitó a los 34 candidatos corriendo este año a participar, y 25 candidatos tomaron parte. Los votantes estarán eligiendo candidatos en dos carreras: cuatro asientos están disponibles en la elección regular y un asiento está siendo llenado en una elección especial.

Escucha directamente de los candidatos en sus propias palabras y aprende más antes del Día de Elecciones el 3 de noviembre de 2026.

Acerca de la Serie de Candidatos

La Serie de Videos de Candidatos de DPSCD 2026 es un proyecto de educación cívica de CitizenDetroit diseñado para ayudar a los votantes de Detroit a conocer a las personas corriendo para la Junta de Educación del Detroit Public Schools Community District.

Con 34 candidatos corriendo por cinco asientos abiertos, CitizenDetroit invitó a candidatos a participar en entrevistas de video cortas y enfocadas. Veinticinco candidatos tomaron parte, dando a los votantes la oportunidad de escucharlos directamente en sus propias palabras.

Cada entrevista se centra en dos preguntas: qué ve el candidato como una prioridad principal para estudiantes de Detroit y qué desearían haber visto o experimentado en sus propias escuelas cuando crecían. El objetivo es ir más allá de nombres en una boleta y dar a los votantes un sentido más claro de las prioridades de cada candidato, perspectiva, y conexión a la educación pública.

La serie también ayuda a proporcionar contexto acerca del rol de la junta escolar y el progreso y desafíos enfrentados por las escuelas públicas de Detroit, haciendo la elección más accesible a votantes que pueden no seguir de cerca la política educativa o gobernanza escolar local.

En su corazón, el proyecto es acerca de participación informada. Al hacer estas entrevistas gratis y fáciles de ver en línea, CitizenDetroit espera dar a más detroitenses la información que necesitan para hacer elecciones confiadas en la urna.

La Serie de Videos de Candidatos de DPSCD 2026 fue producida por CitizenDetroit con apoyo de The Kresge Foundation.
