Special Education Supervisor Jennie Coston walked into a surprise in her office this morning... Jennie is an avid Green Bay Packers fan, and some Detroit Lions fans at Sugnet secretly decorated her space to celebrate the Lions win over the Packers last night! Go Lions! #mcesabettertogether
MCESA programs will be closed today, December 5, 2024 due to inclement weather. Stay safe!
Our Sugnet team welcomed everyone back from break with a chili cook-off during lunch. Staff made their best batch of homemade chili, and students voted on their favorite. All of the chili was fantastic, but Staff and Student Safety Coordinator Mitch Franklin received the most votes. Runner-up was Medicaid and Pupil Accounting Coordinator Andrea Ehrmantraut. Congratulations!
We are thankful for our Post Secondary/TRAILS students and staff who made pumpkin pie that they shared with staff at the Sugnet Building this morning! #mcesabettertogether

We would like to give a very warm thank you to the Dow administrative assistants of the Great Lakes Bay Region. Each year, they host an annual day of giving, and this year, they selected hats, mittens, and gloves as their items for collection. They chose MCESA as one of four organizations to donate the items to for distribution.
Their day of giving culminated on November 13, and on Thursday, November 14, the items were delivered to MCESA's Kim Clark and Krystal Kozuch. The Dow team brought two large bags of donated items ranging in sizes for various ages (some items even beautifully handmade) that will be distributed to students across our organization to help keep them warm throughout the upcoming winter season.
We are very thankful for their generosity! #mcesabettertogether

MCESA Post Secondary/TRAILS and SK-12 students participated in a pumpkin smash this afternoon in Miss Mandy's PE classes, which not only is a fun activity for students, but also a way for many staff to get rid of their carved or whole pumpkins from Halloween! Before the big event, students spent time measuring and gathering information on each pumpkin. #mcesabettertogether
