More than 600 West Bloomfield High School CTE students participated in a Career Fair. Students had the opportunity to learn about Career and Technical Education careers from local leaders in their field of study.
WBHS welcomed students from across the region for an incredible experience focused on health science, leadership, and teamwork. Events like this give students meaningful, hands-on opportunities to explore future careers while building confidence and connections. Thank you to our outstanding HOSA leaders Mark Smith, Kelli Danton, and Liza Zanotti, along with all of the staff and volunteers who are making this large-scale event run so smoothly. An amazing day for students and a great example of Laker Pride in action!
Scotch Elementary collected 1,623 pounds of food, which will provide 1,218 meals to those in need at Gleaners Community Food Bank. Way to go Lakers!
School Bus Safety
Remember these simple rules:
- Yellow flashing lights indicate the bus is preparing to stop to load or unload children. You should slow down and prepare to stop your vehicle.
- Red flashing lights and extended stop arms indicate the bus has stopped and children are getting on or off. You must stop your car and wait until the red lights stop flashing, the extended stop-arm is withdrawn, and the bus begins moving, before you can start driving again.
- Even when lights aren’t flashing, watch for children, particularly in the morning or mid-afternoon, around school arrival and dismissal times. Be alert as you back out of a driveway, or drive through a neighborhood, school zone or bus stop.
