Ann Marie Batkoski wants to give a shout-out to Kayla Coughlin who helped her through some complications with her benefits. During a stressful situation, Kayla was able to make Ann Marie feel heard and put her mind at ease. Kayla definitely represented what it means to be "orange," and I would like to nominate her for an Orange Spot Recognition! Thank you, Kayla! #OrangeSpot #SaginawISD #OurStory

Saginaw County CTE Student Spotlight Keira Larrison 12th Grade Frankenmuth H.S. “Miss Larrison has demonstrated unwavering dedication, reliability, and an exceptional work ethic. Academically, she excels in her rigorous coursework, setting a high standard for both herself and her peers. In DECA, she has shown outstanding leadership as a board member, offering innovative ideas that have helped to grow and improve our chapter. This year, she has continued to impress through her enrollment in Work-Based Learning. Her placement supervisors have consistently praised her professionalism and dependability.” Riley Klein, Frankenmuth H.S. Business & CTE Teacher, “I chose to participate in a CTE program because I was unsure of which career I aspired to pursue in adulthood, and I wanted to have hands-on experience in a field of my highest interest: dentistry. Since beginning my internship at Frankenmuth Family Dental, I have engaged in diverse areas of learning, responsibilities, and networking. I am excited to continue my education and training in my CTE program!” - Keira Larrison includes a picture of Keira at her dentist work based learning placement and the Saginaw ISD CTE logo
