SOAR students at Transitions Center gave back again this past Friday with round 2 of baking dog treats for a local animal shelter. They finished off the day with a visit from Mrs. Tabacsko's therapy dog, Stella, who happily taste-tested the treats and gave her paw of approval!

Who wore it best? Saginaw ISD employees Tony Moryl and Scott Sawyer looked remarkably similar today. Is this the new SISD uniform? #SaginawISD #OurStory
