Our Orange Lilies showed their spark last week as one of the Orange Frog pond groups. Their positivity and teamwork were on full display during the training! 🧡

Holly Murchison enjoyed the Orange Frog training last week at Millet Learning Center!
Last week, a team from Merrill Elementary presented at the 2025 Annual MTSS Conference, focused on advancing effective MTSS implementation to support the growth and success of all learners. This two-day event offers educators opportunities to learn about the latest research and best practices in MTSS, strengthen implementation in their own contexts, and connect with colleagues from across the state.
The Merrill team delivered a presentation titled “A Road Map to the Merrill Miracle: How Systematizing MTSS Drove Us to Success.” They presented to a packed room and shared their powerful journey of building a systematic MTSS framework and using data-based decision-making to improve outcomes for all students. #SaginawISD
