MCESA students have been busy delivering thoughtful gifts of appreciation to job site partners thanking them for providing meaningful learning opportunities throughout the school year. Job site partners provide students with real-world work experiences that help them develop essential skills that may be difficult to cultivate in a traditional classroom setting. Students truly become a part of the team with their job site, and we are thankful for these partnerships! #mcesabettertogether

Superintendent Searles was asked to serve as a "reader" for a Head Start Program ​y​esterday as a part of the Disability Network of Mid-Michigan's Disability Awareness Literacy Program. The program promotes inclusivity and fosters understanding among young students by reading a book about a specific disability, allowing students to ask questions, and providing classrooms with team-building activities.
Thank you to the Disability Network of Mid-Michigan for facilitating this beneficial program celebrating differences! #mcesabettertogether
