History
Inkster High School on Middlebelt was built in 1952.
In 2013 the school had 940 students.
It closed in 2013 when the Inkster district was closed. Everett Cook of the Michigan Daily stated in October 2013 that due to the litter of materials on the sports fields, "Officially, the school has been shut down for three months, but it looks like it's been abandoned for years, as if one day Inkster was operating, and the next everyone picked up and left."
Areas were given to the new districts by quadrants. Students north of Michigan Avenue and west of Middlebelt were rezoned to Wayne-Westland Community School District. Students north of Michigan Avenue and east of Middlebelt were rezoned to Robichaud High School in the Westwood Community School District. Students south of Michigan Avenue and west of Middlebelt were rezoned to Romulus High School in the Romulus Community School District. Students south of Michigan and east of Middlebelt were rezoned to the Taylor School District.
Athletics
The mascot of Inkster High School was a Viking. Prior to 2005, the Inkster Vikings football team had never made the playoffs. Greg Carter became the athletic director and American football coach in 2005 after the closure of the school for which he was previously the coach, St. Martin de Porres High School in Detroit. The team qualified for the playoffs during Carter's first year as a head coach and consistently repeated its performance in later years, three times reaching the state championship. Carter resigned his position in 2011.
