Students in the Graphic Arts program at the Clare-Gladwin Career
Center recently created 25 books for students in Mrs. Todd’s first grade class
at the Renaissance Public School Academy in Mount Pleasant. 
“Every semester, the Graphic Arts class completes a service
learning project,” said Graphic Arts instructor Andrea Boettner. “The students
learn the skills related to the curriculum and find a way to help the community
out. We made the books as an introduction to the binary unit and found a class
with the need for them.” According to Boettner, the first grade students are
currently using the books as science journals.
Graphic Arts student Julie Lester said, “It was nice to make a
project that gave us real life experience and helped our community.”
Graphic Arts is one of nine CTE programs offered to local high
school juniors and seniors at the Clare-Gladwin Career Center, a program of the
Clare-Gladwin RESD. Students spend half of their regular school day in CTE and
the other half at their local high school. For more information, please visit www.cgresd.net.
