Last week, as part of Transitions Center’s volunteer projects, students assembled bathroom kits, take-home hygiene kits, and 150 toothbrushes with mini toothpastes for students to take home. 🪥✨

This effort was made possible through generous donations from our students, families, community members, and staff — and we are incredibly grateful for the continued support!

If you would like to contribute, donations can be dropped off at TC during school hours, or you can email ahawkins1@sisd.cc to arrange a pickup. 💙

Brucker Early Head Start students celebrated Black History Month through creativity and hands-on learning! 🎨✨

Their most recent art project highlighted Garrett Morgan (1877–1963), an African American inventor from Cleveland, who created the first three-position traffic signal in 1923. 🚦

His innovation and problem-solving continue to impact our lives every single day — and our students did an amazing job honoring his legacy through art!

Assistive Technology Coordinator Jessica Bluhm partnered with the OPTIMISE task force (Opening the Pipeline of Talent into Michigan’s Special Education) to create incredible videos highlighting careers in special education connected to assistive technology and AAC.

This video features truly inspiring footage of assistive technology in action at the Millet Learning Center—supporting students and helping give them a voice every single day.

Okayyy Transitions Center students… did anyone notice something a little different around school last week? 👀

That’s right! Staff participated in an underground Spirit Week, and we know some of you caught on!! From mismatched fits to comfy-cozy vibes, it was a fun week all around. We loved seeing who was paying attention! 😄
