St. Charles Community Schools will be closed today, Friday, May 16, 2025, due to no power and severe weather damage. The daycare will also be closed today. Stay safe and have a great extended weekend.
The STC National Honor Society seniors had the most wonderful weather on their Mackinac Island trip. It was a great time!
The NHS advisors, Mr. Wicke and Mrs. Samyn would like to thank the students for representing St. Charles so well, and the parent chaperones for making the trip fun and safe.
Teacher Appreciation Week is something to celebrate, so we are taking this opportunity to celebrate ALL of the St. Charles Community Schools staff.
We would like to express gratitude to our incredible STC staff. Their dedication and commitment make our school an outstanding place to learn.
Whether in the classroom or behind the scenes, they go above and beyond daily!
Let’s celebrate their hard work and the vital role they play in our children’s lives.
Happy STAFF Appreciation Week!!

The Class of 2025 celebrated Decision Day on Friday, May 2, 2025. Students were able to write letters to their future selves, thank an adult for making a difference, sign their banner, take photos, sign, and then read their declaration during Senior Send Off. No matter what the class of 2025 decides, we know they will do great things! #BetterMakeRoom
We would like to thank our local sponsors who helped make the event possible. Arnold's Chiropractic, Kendall Funeral Home, Subway, Windmere Kennels, Fordney Club of Saginaw, Mrs. Fran Hunt and family, Mrs. Schantz, St. Charles Oil, Stephanie Maike of Garber of Chesaning, and St. Charles Auto Collision.

STC high school students met with admissions representatives, toured the campus, and enjoyed lunch at Oakland University. They learned about programs offered, financial aid, and campus life. Thank you, Oakland University, for having us, and Go, Golden Grizzlies!
STC high school students took a trip to Howell, to the Operating Engineers 324 training site, to learn more about careers in the construction field. Students drove steamrollers, used a backhoe, welded, worked with iron, learned about the increasing use of drones, and so much more!
The 2025 Senior Send-Off Video was presented today at the Decision Day event. We want to extend an early CONGRATS to the 2025 senior class who are wrapping up their "last" events as Bulldog students. Best of luck, Class of 2025!!!

The STC Kindergarteners worked on color mixing to make these rainbow clouds. They then had fun creating an expression on the cloud's face. The little students' faces while designing their clouds and the designs created were all so fun to see!
Thank you to Delta College and our admissions representative, Stacy Stremlow, for providing “swag bags” for our seniors who plan to attend Delta in the fall. Go, Ducks!
"Once a Bulldog, Always a Bulldog!” We would like to thank Geoff Koboldt, a Class of 1992 graduate and California entrepreneur, for spending time with our high school and middle school students. Geoff and the students discussed careers, decision-making, and motivation. Thank you, Geoff, for sharing your experiences with our students.

April showers bring May flowers!
STC second-grade students created a multimedia art piece. They used watercolor, tempera paints, oil pastels, and collage to create these beautiful pollinator bees.
Staff Shout Out!
Congratulations to Mrs. Frost, STC's elementary health and PE teacher, for earning her Master's Degree in Education!
STC fourth-grade students worked in art and technology to create outstanding food trucks and menus for the trucks.
STC sixth-grade students looked at artist Wayne Thiebaud for inspiration for their melty-sweet treats. They then worked on painting from the back forward to get nice, clean paintings. Lastly, they added a bold black line for a pop art look.
The 5th-grade students at STC painted the colors of the color wheel. They then worked on adding highlights and shadows with black and white paint. The projects were finalized by creating a crayon shape with positive and negative spaces. The 5th graders did a fantastic job, thanks to the assistance of their art teacher, Mrs. Ashlee Stephens.

Save the date!
The Class of 2025 spent time together enjoying lunch before making sure they had their "Ducks in a Row" as graduation approaches. Getting their "Ducks in a Row" included lining up a job or apprenticeship, enlisting in the military, completing the FAFSA, applying to college, and filling out graduation surveys. Time is flying for the seniors, and new adventures await!
