Hello Junior-Senior High School Parents,
There is a dental program coming to Saranac Community Schools this year which will bring comprehensive dental care to our school (complete exam, X-rays, cleaning, fluoride treatments, sealants, fillings, and other basic restorative care) for all children 18mo-18yr that are covered by Medicaid/Chip programs. This dental program requires a consent form to be filled out and signed which will be coming home with your students this week. You can turn this into Nurse Karah at school OR use the QR code to fill it out online OR visit the website www.MySchoolDentist.com . The Dental team is scheduled to be here May 2, pending we have at least 15 students who qualify with consent sheets. If you have any questions, please contact the school nurse at kkornoely@saranacschools.org OR at 616-642-1263. Thank you!
Ionia County Career Center is once again closed today, Tuesday, April 1st due to lack of power.
This year, Saranac Elementary students raised $6,740.22 for the American Heart Association. Over the last six years, the school has donated over $30,000 to the AHA. Multiple organizations in the state of Michigan receive funds from the AHA to further research and develop new procedures to help people.
This only goes to highlight the kindness and giving spirit of our school, staff, and community members!
Thank you, Tami Wernett, staff, and all our students for their continued support.

Congratulations to 3rd Grader Alexis Rikkers! She is our first-ever female state champion in wrestling!! She and her teammates had an amazing season, and this championship is a great way to finish a historic season for our youth and high school wrestling programs. Thank you to all of the coaches, parents, and athletes who are contributing to building this program!
On the first day of the MyWay wrestling state finals, Saranac had a great showing from the wrestling team. Faith Witt and Addison Roberts represented the school well in the girls division. Aiden Bussell and Whyatt Hicks both went 1-2 coming, one match from placement, and Gabe Webb finished with the highest MyWay placement of any Saranac High School wrestler. He finished his tournament with a 5-1 record and a 3rd place finish. The middle school wrestlers will be in action on Friday and Saturday.
Elementary Lunch Menu Change Wednesday, 3/26 - We will have chicken tenders instead of chicken fries.
