We, at Flint Community Schools, have noticed an increased number of cases in the community of reported Flu and COVID. We want to take this opportunity to remind everyone how they should go about deciding whether or not to send your child to school. When a child attends school sick they are not able to learn as well. They are also placing others at risk of becoming sick. Please see attached guidance for when to keep a child home if showing signs of an illness. Stay safe. Protect yourself and those around you. Together we can thrive.

Game Day at Home! 🏀
