The School-to-Work team recently welcomed Tyrese West from the LiUNA Laborers’ Training Center as a guest speaker for Saginaw United seniors. Mr. West provided students with valuable insight into post-secondary trade opportunities and the benefits of pursuing skilled labor pathways as an alternative to traditional college options.

This visit supports the team’s new Senior Gateway Initiative, which aims to help students explore both college and regional trade programs. Through this initiative, students gain practical knowledge, career awareness, and a clearer understanding of the opportunities available after graduation.

Students in Mrs. Hewitt’s and Ms. Curtis’s classes built creative structures using toothpicks and marshmallows! This hands-on activity tied in perfectly with our tree study as students learned how animals not only live in trees, but also build nests and homes of their own. 🌳🐦 #SaginawISD #ourStory
