Chelsea Shields, Saginaw High School Principal's Secretary, is the recipient of the Jostens Renaissance National Staffulty Member of the Month Award for April 2019.
The Jostens Renaissance National Staffulty Member of the Month recognition is for a deserving staff or faculty member who has made an impact within their school or community through Jostens Renaissance.

"
Chelsea and her husband Stephen, who is also a teacher at Saginaw High School, have worked tirelessly to start the Rider Renaissance organization at SHS," Parker said.

In just the first year of the Rider Renaissance organization, I have already seen a great improvement in school culture. I can't imagine the impact these special students, being led by Mr. and Mrs. Shields, will have as they continue to grow."
