We’re shining a light on Lauren McLean, Special Education Supervisor serving Frankenmuth School District, for her outstanding leadership and student-centered focus. Dr. Erin Senkowski, Deputy Superintendent of Instructional Programs, received this message from Interim Superintendent JoLynn Clark:
“Lauren has been an exceptional addition to our team… She really is exceptional in this role, and I greatly value her as a member of our ‘Muth team.”
Lauren has been instrumental in streamlining MTSS and special education supports, and consistently leads with integrity, even when the work is tough. Her ability to coach, collaborate, and stay focused on what’s best for kids is a clear reflection of what it means to be orange at Saginaw ISD. Way to go, Lauren! #OrangeSpot
