Saline Area Schools Superintendent Steve Laatsch was named Administrator of the Year Friday by the Michigan Chapter of the American String Teachers Association (MASTA).
His nominator for the award wrote this about Laatsch:
"Dr. Laatsch is available and approachable by all in the district. He has overseen bond purchases replenishing string instrument supplies, including completely replacing cellos and basses at three school buildings over the last ten years. Music education has a seat at the table during important district discussions, and he has helped to facilitate schedule changes and staffing flexibility that have allowed for increased musician retention. He is always looking for ways to highlight the successes of the music program through weekly newsletters, social media, and invitations to perform at special district events. Dr. Stephen Laatsch is well-deserving of this year’s MASTA Administrator of the Year Award for his pragmatic leadership and steady support of string music education in Saline Area Schools.”

This story warms my heart! I can't say enough about how spectacular this agency has treated me as a client and what an outstanding pillar of the community Jill Hartman Durnen is day in and day out.

Appreciate the coverage provided for Saline, Tran. That said, your biases are too often evident in what you choose to point out and the language used.
The mayor literally handed out a pre-printed motion in favor of Swallow and gave it to Lesch and Ceo to read first. Ceo read it word for word as a motion. It was drafted before the interviews. They were performative in an attempt to placate the public. I have nothing against Mr.
Once again, we are going to have to agree to disagree, Libby.
