Career & Technical Education and Michael Berry Career Center

Meet Our New Principal!

Greetings,

I am both excited and honored to join the Michael Berry Community as Director of the Michael Berry Career Center, Magnet, DCMST and STEM Middle School. I am very passionate about education and I look forward to partnering with you to provide our students with the highest quality of education possible.  As a parent of four, I recognize the importance of a strong home-school partnership.  Parent’s are a child’s first teacher and I believe that by working together, we can ensure that your child prospers and gains the necessary tools to be a successful young adult and lifelong learner.

I was born and raised in Dearborn and I am a proud product of the Dearborn Public  Schools. I have been with the district for over 20 years and have served our community in many different capacities. I have teaching experience at the elementary and middle school levels, counseling at the high school level, administration experience at the elementary and high school levels and I recently served as the Director of Human Resources for instructional staff.  Throughout my years in the district I have had an open door policy and I will continue to do so.  Please stop by to chat anytime.  I look forward to meeting you all!

Our team is confident we will provide the most rigorous, challenging, and engaging education possible for our students and their families. Your collaboration and support  is an essential key to the success of our students. Working together, staying positive, and focused on solutions will be our central focus. I look forward to meeting you all and I am confident this will be a successful school year. 

Thank you,

Amal Alcodray

Director of the Michael Berry Center, CTE, Magnet, DCMST and STEM Middle School
