Saginaw ISD Director of Instruction, Christine Bolen, was honored to accept an invitation from SchoolHouse Connection to meet with Michigan Representative Tim Kelly.

During this meaningful conversation, they discussed the vital role McKinney-Vento supports play in helping students experiencing homelessness access the stability and educational opportunities they deserve. These services are essential to removing barriers, promoting equity, and ensuring every child has the opportunity to succeed.

At Saginaw ISD, we remain committed to advocating for students and families and supporting programs that help every learner thrive.

The Wellness Committee encourages everyone to make time for movement and relaxation by exploring the benefits of yoga. No matter your experience level, yoga can help improve overall well-being and support both physical and mental health.

Whether it's a few minutes of stretching in the morning or winding down with a calming pose at the end of the day, simple practices can help boost energy, improve balance, relieve stress, support better sleep, and promote relaxation.

The Wellness Committee encourages everyone to keep functional movement in mind this summer. Everyday activities like cleaning, carrying groceries, walking, driving, and even sleeping can put unnecessary strain on our bodies if we aren't mindful of how we move.

Simple habits, such as bending at the knees when lifting, carrying loads close to your body, using supportive footwear, and maintaining good posture while driving or sleeping, can help reduce discomfort and prevent injury.

Small adjustments to the way we move each day can make a big difference in supporting our overall health and well-being. We hope you have a safe, active, and healthy summer!

Today, the 12 public school districts across Saginaw County released the following joint letter encouraging state legislators and Governor Whitmer to finalize Michigan's School Aid Budget by the July 1 deadline.

With that deadline rapidly approaching, school districts are already making important decisions that impact students, staff, and families for the 2026-27 school year. Last year, the School Aid Budget was not finalized until after both the July 1 statutory deadline and the October 1 constitutional deadline for the state budget, creating months of uncertainty for local schools. A timely state budget provides the certainty needed to plan responsibly, be good stewards of public resources, and ensure schools are prepared to welcome students on the first day of class.

Community members who would like to share their perspective with state leaders may do so through the Michigan Association of School Boards advocacy platform: https://www.votervoice.net/MASB/Campaigns/130077/Respond

Camp Millet is off to a sweet start! 🏕️🍫

As part of this week’s camping theme, students in Ms. Britton’s classroom read and completed an adapted book about how to make a s’more. Then, with help from Ms. Katoya, they put their new knowledge into practice by building their own s’mores and enjoying a tasty snack together! #SaginawISD #OurStory
