On June 5, third grade students at Yake Elementary brought history to life during the school’s annual Presidential Wax Museum. The event showcased portrayals of U.S. Presidents and First Ladies—from George Washington to current President Donald Trump—performed by students in costume. This third grade tradition is a highlight of the year that students and families alike enjoy. Leading up to the event, students engaged in a comprehensive learning experience. They conducted independent research, created informational posters, and practiced presenting their findings as part of a major class assignment. The project not only reinforced research and writing skills but also emphasized the importance of public speaking. Students learned how to maintain eye contact, use listening prompts, and speak confidently in front of an audience. The Wax Museum continues to be a beloved event at Yake, bringing the past to life in a fun and meaningful way for the entire school community.

Celebrating Multilingual Excellence at Woodhaven High School! We are so proud to announce that 13 incredible students from Woodhaven High School have earned the Global Seal of Biliteracy — and 5 of those students also achieved the Michigan Seal of Biliteracy! What is the Seal of Biliteracy? This prestigious recognition honors students who have demonstrated proficiency in two or more languages — a powerful achievement that showcases cultural understanding, communication skills, and global readiness. Earning the seal means these students can read, write, speak, and listen in more than one language at a high level. It’s more than just a certificate — it's a passport to new opportunities in college, careers, and beyond! Being bilingual or multilingual is a superpower — and these students are proof of what’s possible when hard work, dedication, and passion come together. Congratulations to our Woodhaven Warriors on this amazing accomplishment! You make us proud, and the world is yours! #SealOfBiliteracy #GlobalSeal #MichiganSeal Global seal - Conner Kubrak Humza Iqbal Quincey Robinson Emily Natter Keira Shallow Evelyng Estrada Simon Phillips Lorena Moldovan Jerald Teal Brianna Caballero Anabel Hernadez Aiden Hale Maggie Gaskell Michigan Seal - Brianna Caballero Anabel Hernadez Simon Phillips Humza Iqbal Lorena Moldovan
