Dear Families–  

I am proud to inform you that the Flint Community Schools district is now offering an in-person learning option for families who have elected to participate. It will include two days of in-person learning per week.  

Beginning Monday, March 15, we will offer the option of in-person learning for our LSS scholars, ECDD scholars and scholars in Pre-K through third grade. Scholars in fourth grade through 12th grade will have the option of returning to in-person learning beginning Monday, March 22.  

Wednesdays will be a distance learning day for all scholars as we prepare for the next group of scholars. Thus, scholars will be required to connect online, screen to screen, in order to have their attendance counted. Welcoming our scholars back in two phases allows our district to transition smoothly while prioritizing the safety of our scholars and staff.  

If you have elected the hybrid option, your child’s school will be sending a letter to you outlining your child’s weekly schedule. We appreciate our parents and families, who have been incredibly patient and understanding as we continue to put the safety of our school community first. If you have any questions, please contact your child’s principal.  

As a reminder, the district’s Safe Return and Recovery Plan can be found on the district’s website (www.FlintSchools.org). It is one of the rotating banners on the home page. We will soon have an FAQ document on the website as well.  

We continue to be Flint Focused, putting the safety of our scholars and staff first. Thank you for partnering with us on your child’s education.

Your Partner in Education,

Mrs. Anita J. Steward

Superintendent
