Leadership Lansing Visits Ingham ISD

The Lansing Regional Chamber of Commerce brought their Leadership Lansing cohort to Ingham ISD on January 16. Leadership Lansing is a talent initiative that runs annually from October through May and is designed to develop a new generation of community leaders in our region. The group visited Career & Technical Education programs at the Wilson Talent Center and then heard from Ingham ISD Superintendent, Jason Mellema and Eaton RESA Superintendent, Dr. Sean Williams on how educators and business leaders can work together to bridge the talent pipeline in our region. #InghamImpact 

WTC Students Give Back to the Community

Students in the National Technical Honor Society at the Wilson Talent Center (WTC) coordinated several initiatives in December to help others. The students hosted both a food drive as well as a hat and mitten drive. Donations received were provided to the City Rescue Mission of Lansing and the Mason Food Bank. In addition, several WTC classes sponsored young mothers and babies at Angel House, providing needed items. The generosity of our students, families and staff were greatly appreciated. #InghamImpact
