Have a nice Easter break! We will see you back on Tuesday, April 22!

Save the date for Youth Advisory Council Day 2025! As we cultivate the next generation of philanthropists, we invite you to help lift up our Youth Advisory Councils, or YACs, and the work they do. Your support will increase the impact they can make for their peers each year. Please consider a donation to your local YAC on Youth Advisory Council Day!
Each of our YACs are being offered a $1,000 match through the Dolores and Leonard Roznowski Fund held at the Community Foundation. This match means your donation goes even further!
Learn more about Youth Advisory Council Day and mark your calendar for May 6th to donate at cfnem.org.

Jumpstart to Kindergarten at Alcona Schools on Wednesday, May 7th!
Last week, students from Ms. Luce-Wilson's science classes made a meaningful impact by conducting an Adopt-a-Highway cleanup. During their cleanup along our school’s two-mile stretch of highway, they collected 50.2 pounds of trash! With Earth Day right around the corner, their hard work is a powerful reminder of the importance of protecting our environment. Students also helped cleanup around our school grounds. Thank you for helping keep our community and school clean! 🌍♻️ #alconaschools #adoptahighway
