A special guest hopped into Orange Frog Training last week!
New Saginaw ISD employees had the opportunity to meet Spark, our lovable frog who represents the power of positivity and happiness! Inspired by Shawn Achor’s book The Orange Frog, the training encourages employees to embrace a positive mindset and spread happiness throughout their workplaces.
What a fun way to welcome our newest team members to Saginaw ISD! 🧡

Liz Roxberry, Hartley Outdoor Education Center Program Director, would like to nominate Fayerene Meeks for Orange Spot Recognition.
Faye consistently goes above and beyond to support individuals across our district, and she truly deserves recognition for the excellence she brings to our team.
As our Finance Software Supervisor, Faye ensures that we have the tools, resources, and support necessary to better serve our exceptional staff district-wide. What makes her stand out, however, is not just what she does, but how she does it. She takes the time to problem-solve right alongside you, approaches every interaction with one-on-one support, and has a contagious positive demeanor.
Faye has a remarkable ability to make even the most challenging situations feel manageable. Her knowledge, patience, and responsiveness make her an invaluable resource and a wonderful partner to work with. She is truly a bright light in every interaction I have with her.
Our district is stronger because of people like you, Faye, who take pride in supporting others and go the extra mile to help everyone succeed. Thank you for all that you do. Your dedication, kindness, and commitment to excellence do not go unnoticed!
