Last night, we were proud to celebrate school board members from across Saginaw County during the Saginaw County Association of School Boards meeting as they were recognized for earning awards through the Michigan Association of School Boards.

These recognitions reflect a continued commitment to professional learning, leadership, and service on behalf of students, staff, schools, and communities throughout our county. School board service requires countless hours of dedication, thoughtful decision-making, and a willingness to keep learning in an ever-changing educational landscape.

Thank you to each of our board members for your leadership and your commitment to expanding possibilities for the communities you serve.

Teachers and students at the Saginaw Juvenile Detention Center are excited about the beginning of their Garden Project! 🌱

Recently, students learned about seed germination through hands-on observation while beginning the process of sustainable urban gardening by planting and growing vegetables. As the project continues, students will water, monitor, and care for the plants as they grow, eventually harvesting and enjoying the vegetables they helped cultivate themselves.

This real-life, hands-on learning experience is inspiring young minds, encouraging responsibility, and helping students discover that growth can happen wherever they are planted. ☀️

May is Mental Health Awareness Month. 💚

As we enter one of the busiest and most demanding times of the school year, it’s important to remember to be gentle with ourselves and one another. We all face times when we aren't okay. Mental Health matters.

The small moments matter: the check-ins, the patience, the kindness, the pause. These moments may seem simple, but they build over time and make a meaningful difference in our well-being.

Take a second for yourself here.

A few deep breaths or have a sip of water, do something for a small reset.

It matters.
