A special congratulations to our incredible elementary science teacher, Ms. Jenny Schroeder, for being awarded the 2025 Michigan Science Teachers Association "Special Award for Advocacy in Science Education"! 🏆🌊🌎
This prestigious award recognizes her outstanding efforts in building a vibrant community of science learning for students and teachers alike. Through her innovative co-teaching model, she’s embedded in every grade K-5, empowering teachers to bring hands-on, place-based, and community-centered science into their classrooms every day. 💡🔬
Ms. Schroeder’s work not only inspires a love for natural resources and the Great Lakes but also helps students develop environmental leadership skills and make a real impact in their communities. 🌿💙
Please join us in celebrating her amazing achievement!
