A sunny day followed by a huge rainstorm sets the perfect stage for a magical preschool treasure hunt for the Murphy Farm Preschoolers! We found a sled full of toys, pumpkins from an old experiment, a pair of mittens, tracks, and some animal bones and antlers. A couple deer joined us as they hunted for some treats to eat. #SaginawISD #OurStory
Growing Minds is bringing AI powered hydroponic systems into Michigan classrooms to connect STEM learning with real world agriculture, nutrition, and food science.

Our SOAR program developed and began a new community worksite partnership with Board and Brush in Saginaw! Students who participate are building skills such as staining, painting, stocking, packaging and drilling and cutting wood for events that are held in the evenings and weekends. We are looking forward to continuing to build this partnership with our local business. #TransitionsCenter #SaginawISD #OurStory
Congratulations to our Director of CTE, Josh Miller, on his first time presenting to the Board of Education this week! Josh provided an update on the continued growth of the Saginaw Career Complex, including nearly doubling student enrollment since the passage of the 2018 CTE Millage. As the fiscal agent of the millage, Saginaw ISD has distributed more than $20 million in reimbursements to our local school districts over time, removing financial barriers and expanding access to high-quality CTE programming for students across Saginaw County.
We’re looking forward to expanding additional programs at SCC, pending approval, and to continuing to build on this momentum. We’re also grateful for the strong partnership with Saginaw Public Schools and for SCC Principal Ben Leal, who attended the meeting and continues to support this important work. Well done, Josh! #CTEMonth #SaginawCountyCTE #OrangeSpot
Ms. Sarah’s class at Millet Learning Center visited the Frankenmuth Public Library for an adult sensory storytime featuring a STEM-themed book. Students also got to watch a drone demonstration inside the library and create a fun hands-on craft. It was such a great experience for our learners! #SaginwaISD #OurStory
SOAR students had a busy morning painting and fixing wood pieces to help volunteers at Sleep in Heavenly Peace. This work is essential in the process of building beds for individuals and families in need in our community. This strong partnership has allowed students to gain valuable work skills while helping their community as well. #TransitionsCenter #SaginawISD #OurStory
This positive ORANGE message came into our preschool comment box this week, and it is a perfect reminder of the great things our leadership team does for our teachers and staff on a daily basis!" Thank you, Ashley Reed, for sharing such a positive message about your supervisor!
"I am coming up on my 5-year anniversary, and in the 5 years, I have had a different supervisor for every year I’ve been there. I want to say that Frankie Lopez is by far the best supervisor I’ve worked under. I recently had the chance to work with her in the classroom and met Teacher Frankie. I respect her input and help. She pushes me to do better, she’s involved, kind, patient, and not afraid to give constructive criticism. I wanted to say I’m happy to work under her in the workplace."
