Student Spotlight: Zachary Wegrzyn Zack was the class of 2021 salutatorian at Vassar High School. He completed the GLBEC program in 2022. Zack has an Associate's Degree in Applied Science in Heavy Duty Diesel Service Technology from Delta College. Zack works at Diesel Truck Sales, where he began working before he graduated from GLBEC. Zack is married and fast approaching his first anniversary. Why GLBEC: Zack’s answer: It offered me a challenge beyond what high school could offer. It gave me the opportunity to finish college with an Associate's degree at about the same time as I finished high school. Why GLBEC: Parents’ answer: GLBEC offers the opportunity for college classes with minimum expense. GLBEC is especially good for those who are already self-disciplined and organized. We are so thankful for GLBEC and the fast-track career it offered without any debt incurred. #GLBEC #SaginawISD #EarlyCollege

Delta Project Coordinator and School to Work Specialist Denny Wickham spent part of the morning with 9th-grade students in Chesaning. Denny provided an overview of the Delta Project that included the benefits of the three-year program and how to apply.
Now in its 17th year, this countywide college prep program has three cohorts (10th, 11th, and 12th grade) that meet twice monthly for evening workshops. Throughout the three-year program, students work on career exploration, self-advocacy, and post-secondary education skills. Students tour Delta College programs, spending in-depth time in the media center, disability services, and other campus locations to become more familiar with the post-secondary process. #STW

Why The Great Lakes Bay Early College?
GLBEC allowed me to challenge myself and fall in love with learning all over again! Alongside this, I was still able to participate in cross country and track, which was extremely important to me. GLBEC was the best decision I have ever made for myself from an educational and financial perspective. Who could turn down free college at a highly accredited university? It was challenging, but it made me the hard worker that I am today! #SaginawISD #GLBEC #EarlyCollege #SVSU
