Local leaders in education meet with legislators


Approximately 25 local board of education members and superintendents gathered at the Harrison High School Media Center on March 4 to talk with Michigan legislators during this month’s Legislative Breakfast, sponsored by the Clare-Gladwin Area School Board Association.

State Senator Darwin Booher, State Senator John Moolenaar, and State Representative Joel Johnson spent the morning answering questions and discussing current and upcoming legislation related to public education.

“As superintendents and school board members, we are passionate advocates for our students and for public education,” said Clare-Gladwin RESD Superintendent Sheryl Presler. “The Legislative Breakfast gives us a chance to engage with our local legislators one-on-one, ask them questions, and give them insight as to how their decisions will directly impact the students in our communities.”  

Breakfast was provided by Chartwell’s Food Service.
