The STC Kindergarten went on a field trip to Grandpa Tiny's Farm in Frankenmuth. Despite the dreary and drizzly weather, the kids had a blast playing in the corn and meeting all the animals—except Pedro (the horse), who wasn't on his best behavior.
St. Charles students partnered with the United Way of Saginaw County and other county organizations to “Spring into Service.” Our students joined students from around Saginaw County for a day of giving. Students volunteered at places such as The Eastside Soup Kitchen, The United Way, and Hidden Harvest. Other students volunteered making blankets, helping put beds together, weeding, spreading mulch, and painting. Great job, Bulldogs!
"Chip Chip Hooray" is an appreciation initiative created by our St. Charles Board of Education. We are grateful for the chance to express our thanks to our staff for their hard work.
Congrats to the high school equestrian team, who won Reserve Champion in their C division.
Congratulations to our STC Preschool classes on their Graduation Day! Thank you to Mrs. Sheldon, Miss Shelby Grunas, Miss Lindsey Webb, and Miss Alley Burgess for your leadership and commitment to our littlest Bulldog students of the district.

Hello STC Families,
Due to the recent storms and clean-up efforts, it is with the recommendation of Consumers Energy and the local authorities that St. Charles Community Schools and the Daycare Center be CLOSED on Monday, May 19, 2025.

Furthermore, the Honors Convocation Ceremony will also be canceled on Monday, May 19, 2025. A new date for this ceremony will be announced soon.
If you need to contact the school for any reason, you may email Shannon Grunas at grunass@stccs.org, as the phone lines are also enabled at this time.
