Sharing Successes during Difficult Times

The past several days have brought stark contrasts related to news about Saline Area Schools.  We adopted a budget that includes reductions in staff, increases in fees, and uses a significant portion of our remaining fund balance for the 2011-2012 school year.  During this same time Saline High School was rated one of the top high schools in the country by Newsweek. In addition, our students and former students performed exceptionally well at the Skills USA event in Kansas City.

Kelsey Wonsavage – Culinary Arts placed First in the Nation.

Nick Rutowski – Graphics placed Fourth in the Nation.

Samantha Dault – Cosmetology placed Seventh in the Nation.

Ryan Hastings – Automotive not able to find out yet where he placed.

Former Saline grads. at WCC or Ferris:

Brad Clink –  placed first in  Post Secondary Welding and will go to the World competition in London, England in October.

John Bohnett – placed third in Post Secondary Graphics

Andy Smith –  placed first in Post Secondary Cabinet making

Even during these difficult times, it is important we continue to celebrate the hard work and successes of our students and staff.
