Here is one of the biggest announcements we make all school year: The 2026 Hueschen Scholarship recipients are
-Madison Scaddan, daughter of Paul and Celine Scaddan of Pigeon
-Ava Gardy, daughter of Eric and Jennifer Gardy of Pigeon
-Sarah Steinman, daughter of James and Tricia Steinman of Elkton
As Hueschen recipients, these three young ladies received a full four-year scholarship to Michigan State University. This is a science scholarship, so Ava, Madison, and Sarah will all be studying science at MSU. Ava will study human biology and enter the nursing field, eventually becoming a nurse-midwife. Madison will study human biology at Lyman Briggs College. She then plans to enter the medical field to become a surgeon. Sarah will study human biology at the Lyman Briggs College, and she plans to become a family physician through the MSU College of Osteopathic Medicine.

A huge congratulations to all three! This is the culmination of many years of hard work and dedication. They are pictured here with Superintendent Jill VerBurg.

Mark your calendars - and prepare some sweet treats! The Laker Theatre Company is performing the play "The Outsiders" March 20-22, and those involved in the play are looking to make the performances even more impactful for students.
To support the theater program and fund a dedicated student scholarship, the Theatre Company will host a bake sale and concession stand before, after, and during intermission at each performance. Every treat and drink sold helps provide direct financial support to a deserving student in the arts.
To help, the Theatre Company is asking for donations of baked goods, pre-packaged snacks, and beverages to stock a table. Whether you're a master baker or a pro at picking out the best store-bought treats, your contribution makes a massive difference!
Please click the link below to let the Theatre Company know what you can contribute. Specific items are listed to ensure a great variety for those who attend the plays.
Performances will be at 6 p.m. March 20 and 21 and 2 p.m. March 22.
Please share this post with anyone who may want to donate baked goods and/or beverages to support the scholarship!
