Ms. Sharon and Ms. Dawn's MOCI classes are now meeting on Mentor Wednesdays. The Area School MOCI class, comprised of 15-20-year-old students, is now mentoring the MOCI class comprised of 6-10-year-old students. During Mentor Wednesdays, our students are working together on different projects. These projects work on fine motor skills, taking turns, individual choices, social skills, number recognition, and so much more. They are enjoying the opportunity to grow together and create long-lasting relationships. #OurStory, #AreaSchool, #CGRESD, #MOCI
The Area School MOCI class, comprised of 15-20-year-old students, welcomes spring. Through a partnership with CTE Agriculture, our students planted seeds for their vegetable and cut-flower gardens. We planted tomatoes, jalapeño peppers, green peppers, cauliflower, broccoli, loofah sponges, and many different types of cut flowers. We look forward to seeing their progress.

STEM Teacher Anthony Taylor from Clare created a Dungeons & Dragons one-shot that attendees of the after-hours MACUL Reception played. Duncan Gervin from CGRESD and Joe Trommater from REMC 5 assisted in running a second table. The game was a hit and was a great reminder for everyone that each REMC has tabletop games available for check-out, including the Dungeons & Dragons Starter Kit. Contact Joe Trommater for details! #CGRESD #ourstory #REMC5
