Lenawee ISD

That's a wrap on another incredible summer of Career Exploration Camps!

Over the past three weeks, hundreds of campers explored new interests, built new skills, made new friends, and discovered just how much they can do. None of it would be possible without our amazing instructors, volunteers, staff, and families. Thank you for making this another unforgettable summer!

Yesterday, the Porter Gym became a ballpark where every student had the chance to step up to the plate, hear their name cheered, and simply enjoy the game. Days like these remind us that everyone deserves the opportunity to play.

What a great way to wrap up another week of Career Exploration Camps! Today, families got to step inside the classrooms, see the projects campers have been working on, and hear about everything they explored this week. There's nothing better than watching students proudly share what they've created. Thanks to all of our campers, families, and staff for making it another fun and memorable week!

Today, the first Success Camp for Lenawee County Early College students officially kicked off!

This incredible group represents some of the very first class of students from Lenawee County public school districts to enroll in the new program, giving them the opportunity to earn a high school diploma while completing up to 60 college credits, an associate degree, or an industry credential, all while remaining connected to their home school and community.

We are proud to launch Lenawee County Early College in partnership with Jackson College and can't wait to watch these students learn, grow, and thrive. Here's to a journey filled with new experiences and big goals!

Sometimes the most important lessons happen outside of the lesson plan. When a power outage forced the cancellation of the final day of our Hammertime Career Exploration Camp, campers were unable to finish building their toolboxes. Rather than letting those projects go unfinished, instructors Mr. Biggs and Mr. Secord went above and beyond by coming in on their own time to complete each toolbox for the students. Their dedication ensured every camper could take home a finished project and a lasting reminder of what they accomplished this week. Thank you, Mr. Biggs and Mr. Secord, for your commitment to our students and for always going the extra mile. #LenaweeISD #LISD #CareerExplorationCamps #LenaweeEducation #SummerCamp
