Welcome to Eaton RESA

CHARLOTTE, Mich.- Eaton Regional Educational Service Agency (RESA) is proud to announce that Tina Monroe, chief financial officer (CFO), has been selected as the 2026 Michigan School Business Official of the Year. 

This recognition, presented by the Michigan School Business Officials (MSBO), honors school business professionals who demonstrate exceptional leadership, integrity and service to public education. She was presented with the award at the 87th MSBO Annual Conference & Exhibit Show. 

Students from the Eaton RESA Aviation Careers Institute (ACI) recently got a glimpse into one of aviation's fastest-growing frontiers- drone technology. 

Dr. Surya S. C. Congress and Judd Herzer, researchers from Michigan State University's Mobility Research and Innovation Department  visited with ACI students to explore how drone technology is being used to tackle real-world engineering challenges. Students learned how unmanned aerial systems are deployed to survey infrastructure, evaluate safety conditions, and generate detailed 3D renderings of roads, railways and bridges. 

Families in Eaton County are invited to FREE Community Playgroups designed for children and infants from birth through 5 years old, along with their siblings. These fun and engaging playgroups will be held in Grand Ledge, Charlotte and Eaton Rapids. Please see the complete list of playgroups and locations.

Each playgroup offers a welcoming space for families to connect while children enjoy stories, movement activities, art, social interaction and plenty of play. Parents and caregivers must remain with their children at all times, and each child will receive a free book to take home.
