👟💙 Stepping Up for Our Scholars! 💙👟
For the past 25 years, the Shoes That Fit program has proudly served students in Flint Community Schools through partnerships with local hospitals that purchase and donate new shoes—especially during the holiday season.
This year, over 500 pairs of shoes were delivered to our K–6th grade scholars, helping ensure they are comfortable, confident, and ready to learn.
A heartfelt thank you to McLaren Flint and Henry Ford Genesys Hospital for your continued collaboration and commitment to our scholars. Your generosity truly makes a difference, one step at a time! 👣✨

Last night, McLaren Family Medicine Residency Center added a little extra holiday cheer for some of our families in memory of Dr. Simran Deol. By continuing his tradition of spreading joy and support to children in need, they honored Dr. Deol’s belief that every child deserves to be cared for. Flint Community Schools would like to sincerely thank the McLaren Family Medicine Residency Center for keeping Dr. Deol’s legacy alive and for thinking of our scholars and their families during this holiday season. 🎁✨ #FlintCommunitySchools #CommunityPartners #ThankYou

Immunization Requirement Reminder:
Michigan law requires school aged students to be up to date with their childhood immunizations. Every student is required to have up to date immunization records on file. If these records are not provided, that child is not allowed to continue attending class. If you have received letters and calls about your child not being up to date, your child's classes will be closed upon return from winter break. Please see attached documents for more information on how to ensure your child's classes do not get closed. Our goal is for no child to have to miss class time due to this requirement. Please visit your child's primary care doctor or the local health department to receive the required documentation. I hope everyone has a beautiful and restful break!
