SUMMER YOUTH BALL FUN: More fun from the 2021 Summer Youth Ball program, as the Pink Warriors from Plainwell had their final game against Otsego. After the game, the pink team was awarded medals and the coach allowed the girls to dump Gatorade on him. What a fun way for the team to celebrate the end of their season.

FIRST WEEK OF SAIL: It was a great week, as our summer students set SAIL on their Summer Adventure In Learning! We were so excited to welcome these students back in the buildings to learn and grow through this awesome summer program. Here are some highlights from the week: 1. The K-5 students created a social contract that we’re calling our Compass! 2. Middle School STEAM students planned, marketed and created business plans for how they would run a food truck. 3.  We already have high school students completing classes.  Self-paced means SAIL ends for high school students when they’ve achieved their credits. 4. Our elementary students read about character development throughout the week.  We finished this with Friday Adventure Day where students created their own super hero - mask, cape, comic and all! It was a great first week and we cannot wait to welcome back our Sailors next week!
