As of March 3rd there were 3 confirmed cases of measles in Michigan. Due to how contagious measles is, and how long it takes to build up in someone's system, that number is likely to grow significantly over the next 3-4 weeks, especially in areas or groups with lower vaccine rates. Getting vaccinated against any vaccine preventable illness is one of the best ways to greatly reduce the risk of you, or your children, getting and spreading the illness. Please look at the attached infographic for more important information about measles.

The Flint Board of Education and the Flint Community Schools Superintendent Official Revised Statement Concerning UTF. The document referenced is available via our Mobile App and www.flintschools.org under the Flint Board of Education https://www.flintschools.org/page/fboe-and-administration-communications and the Superintendent’s tabs https://www.flintschools.org/o/fcs/page/fboe-and-administration-communications.
All school buildings will be closed today due to 119 United Teachers of Flint, MEA/NEA employees calling in sick today through the District’s Red Rover management system. The District certainly does not appreciate how this unexpected school closure will impact our families. While the District understands that this school closure will hurt our scholars more than anyone else, the District hopes that UTF employees will return to work tomorrow, so scholars can be educated tomorrow.
The District will continue to offer a high-quality education to our scholars when UTF employees return to work and the District looks forward to ending the 2023-24 school year on a positive note. If you have any questions regarding this statement, please feel free to contact the District at 810-760-1000.
Principals, the secretaries, and all Central Office report.
Sorry for the inconvenience for our scholars and families.

Starting in the 2024-2025 school year, “…a parent/guardian applying to have a child registered for the first time in kindergarten or first grade in a Michigan school shall comply with having their child receive a dental oral assessment no earlier than 6 months before the date of the child's registration with the school.
Cavities are common and can cause pain that can prevent a child from doing well in school. Flint Community Schools is partnering with the local health department and Mott Children’s Health Center to assist in providing access to this FREE, quick oral health assessment for scholars getting ready to register for kindergarten.
