At this month’s Central Office Meeting, we did things a little differently!
Instead of Superintendent Jones selecting the honorees, he invited staff to give affirmations to colleagues they felt truly deserved the recognition. When affirmations come from those you work alongside every day, it makes the recognition even more meaningful.
Please join us in congratulating these four outstanding employees:
✨ Tyra Stowe
✨ Ashley Smith
✨ Deanna Schlaud
✨ Maiya Mashack
Thank you for the passion, dedication, and heart you bring to Flint Community Schools. We see you, we appreciate you, and we celebrate you! 👏

Flint Community Schools remembers and honors the enduring legacy of Reverend Jesse Jackson, a tireless champion for civil rights, education, and the power of civic engagement.
In October 2024, our scholars and staff at Southwestern Classical Academy were honored to welcome Reverend Jackson. His message to our senior class was clear and powerful: our voices matter, and voting is one of the most important ways we shape our future.
Superintendent Kevelin Jones shared:
“Rev. Jesse Jackson’s visit to Flint Community Schools was a historic and inspiring moment for our scholars. He reminded us that civic engagement is not just a right, but a responsibility. His lifelong commitment to justice, equality, and empowering young people will continue to inspire generations of Flint scholars to lead, serve, and make their voices heard.”
We are forever grateful for his impact on our school community and the example he set for our scholars. His legacy lives on in every student who understands their power to create change.
