Delta Project Coordinator and School to Work Specialist Denny Wickham spent part of the morning with 9th-grade students in Chesaning. Denny provided an overview of the Delta Project that included the benefits of the three-year program and how to apply.
Now in its 17th year, this countywide college prep program has three cohorts (10th, 11th, and 12th grade) that meet twice monthly for evening workshops. Throughout the three-year program, students work on career exploration, self-advocacy, and post-secondary education skills. Students tour Delta College programs, spending in-depth time in the media center, disability services, and other campus locations to become more familiar with the post-secondary process. #STW

It was an AWESOME morning visiting Transitions Center's interns at Covenant Hospital! Three students participate in a yearlong paid internship each year, working 20 hours per week at Covenant Hospital in the morning and participating in the SOAR program in the afternoon. Interns complete three rotations in Cooper kitchen, linens, and supply chain, learning on-the-job skills.
This long-standing partnership of over 20 years has supported training of essential vocational skills, leading to students being hired in numerous departments and positions at Covenant Hospital after completing their internship. #SaginawISD #TransitionsCenter

Why The Great Lakes Bay Early College?
GLBEC allowed me to challenge myself and fall in love with learning all over again! Alongside this, I was still able to participate in cross country and track, which was extremely important to me. GLBEC was the best decision I have ever made for myself from an educational and financial perspective. Who could turn down free college at a highly accredited university? It was challenging, but it made me the hard worker that I am today! #SaginawISD #GLBEC #EarlyCollege #SVSU

We want to recognize these teams for their hard work and commitment to quality. We had three teams meet this threshold this year and want to share our congrats and take a moment to acknowledge this achievement: Healthy Families Northern Michigan, Healthy Families America Wayne, and Saginaw County Healthy Families America. Congratulations again on this wonderful accomplishment!" #SaginawISD
