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.

Last week, the Special Education Department gathered for its annual administrative retreat and had the opportunity to visit the Michigan School for the Deaf! The team learned more about the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (D/HH) community while touring the school and the superintendent’s home. 💙 #SaginawISD #OurStory

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!
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









Ms. Kohnert’s class is settling into their Camp Millet routine and making the most of these beautiful summer days. We’re excited for all the fun, learning, and adventures that lie ahead!
