This week is School Counselors Week. The Transitions Center students and staff would like to recognize two of our Vocational Rehabilitation Counselors Jennifer Schaller and Suzanna Williams. Jennifer and Suzanna have assisted numerous students in developing job readiness skills, provided them with community vocational opportunities, and secured permanent employment for some. We appreciate their hard work and commitment to our students and the community. #OurStory #SaginawISD #SISDTransitionsCenter #SchoolCounselorsWeek
