Adaptive PE Educator Cheryl Evers and PE/Health Consultant Josh Boutwell were able to represent GIRESD at the 2025 SHAPE Michigan Annual State Convention. There were lots of great presenters covering content on Adaptive PE, Health, and Physical Education. Cheryl and Josh also were awarded class sets of pedometers from the convention's raffle. The class sets will be able to be checked out by local educators. Josh also represented GIRESD in being the SHAPE Michigan Northeast Region 5 Coordinator.

Are you tired of getting your school-aged loved ones gift cards so they can spend more time on a screen? Do you want to get them a gift with educational value, but want to see if it is actually fun first?

Rooms 106-107) to preview some tried and tested STEM Toys, Board Games, and Maker Materials before you go shopping for the Holidays (or your classroom)!
