Hello Cardinal Families!
You may have heard about the state education budget not being done and are curious about its impact on our district - it has been difficult to navigate, but we are doing all we can to keep the focus on doing what’s best for our students. For information on the budget, please read this letter https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MrCwMzgDYtgSm59fy3qTISpfA6wP6lyx/view?usp=sharing
While the district does not have anything on the ballot this November, there is a CTE millage on the ballot from the ESD that directly impacts our district. Read more about the impact of the CTE millage here: https://www.cteforcop.org/ and be sure to watch the video!
Thank you for your continued support and partnership—it truly makes a difference for our students.

Spotlight on Staff!
On Tuesday, November 4, 2025, residents of the Cheboygan-Otsego-Presque Isle Educational Service District (COPESD) will vote on a career and technical education (CTE) millage. 🗳️
If approved, 100% of the revenue generated by this levy for the next six years would support the expansion and enhancement of vocational education programs in schools throughout the region.
Under this proposal, industry partners would advise COPESD and local school districts on CTE curriculum and program development to align student learning with the current and emerging needs of our regional workforce.
Find more information about the proposed CTE millage, including answers to frequently asked questions, by visiting https://www.cteforcop.org.

Lewiston 4th graders were hard at work last week learning about how muscles, bones, and tendons work together to move their bodies. They enjoyed building robot hands and experimenting with them. We ❤️ Mystery Science!
Middle school students celebrated Constituion Day today by completing a word search to find the 55 gentlemen who signed the constitution on September 17, 1787.
Last week I was able to attend some learning with Ms. Sehl's second grade! Her caterpillars are getting ready to become butterflies and the presentation from Raven Hill provided students with some fantastic hands on science experiences!
Today in Kindergarten, Lewiston students honored Patriot Day with special activities and discussions. We read the story Fireboat which helped us learn about bravery and teamwork. We also talked about heroes - both the everyday heroes in our community and the heroes remembered on this day. To finish, each student made a hero heart to show gratitude and love for the people who help keep us safe everyday.
It was a meaningful way for us to learn about kindness, courage, and remembering the importance of helping others. 💙♥️
