STEM Teacher Anthony Taylor from Clare created a Dungeons & Dragons one-shot that attendees of the after-hours MACUL Reception played. Duncan Gervin from CGRESD and Joe Trommater from REMC 5 assisted in running a second table. The game was a hit and was a great reminder for everyone that each REMC has tabletop games available for check-out, including the Dungeons & Dragons Starter Kit. Contact Joe Trommater for details! #CGRESD #ourstory #REMC5

The CGRESD Easter Egg Scramble has started in Harrison! It's a good time for some holiday fun with staff! #CGRESD #ourstory

March is reading month and The Cat in the Hat knows a lot about that! The Cat in the Hat stopped by the Gladwin County Baby Pantry and read the book "Sam I Am" to the kids while they enjoyed some goldfish crackers! Each family was able to take home a copy of the book thanks to the Clare Gladwin CAN Council. #CGRESD #ourstory #CANcouncil




Three of our amazing literacy coaches from our regions participated in a coaching intensive at Winn Elementary in March.

The following participated: Patricia from Midland, Dawn from Beaverton, and Cheryl from CGRESD administration. #CGRESD #ourstory

Last month, our districts proudly wore pink to support bullying awareness. 💗
Together, students and staff sent a strong message that kindness matters and bullying has no place in our schools. Pink Day may have passed, but our commitment to safe and supportive learning environments continues every day. #CGRESD #ourstory #pinkshirtday #StopBullying #ChooseKindness
