Dear Cheboygan School Community -
On Friday, May 2, 2025, the Char-Em ISD region, along with the COPESD region, and Northwest Ed region will show solidarity with the Charlevoix school community in the aftermath of the tragic accident that occured with the boys’ varsity golf team on April 27. We want to show the Charlevoix community that the region stands with them as the students and coach recover from their injuries and work to overcome the emotional toll such an accident can have as well.
On May 2, please wear Rayder colors of maroon and white, Charlevoix school or community apparel, maroon ribbons, or other ways to show support for the district. Students and staff are encouraged to create posters and messages of support, and share photos of all activities with the hashtag, #RAYDERSTRONG. We want to flood social media with messages of support and encouragement to students, their families, the school district, and the community.
Please share this email with your staff and teachers and have them share with their students in advance of Friday’s Rayder Strong Day. Feel free to also share this with other community members and businesses.

Superintendent's across the region have come together to advocate for relief. We are currently urging the state to pass House Bill 4345, which would grant up to 10 additional emergency days for affected schools. We’ve been actively sharing updates from Rep. Cam Cavitt on social media, including on our district website, to keep our community informed. I’ve attached screenshots of those posts for your reference.
We remain hopeful the bill will pass. If not, we’ll need to add the missed days to the end of the school year, pushing us into the third week of June—a concern for both families and staff. I was interviewed by the St. Ignace News and 9&10 News regarding the situation yesterday and hopefully, together, we can get the word out and the support we need to get these days excused.
