We have many exciting things to look forward to in 2026, but we also want to take a moment to celebrate a proud accomplishment from 2025 at Eisenhower Elementary School. 🎉

Eisenhower officially exited state support, according to the 2024–25 Michigan School Index released by the Michigan Department of Education—an achievement reached by only 68 schools statewide.

This milestone reflects three years of hard work and collaboration among Principal Thomas, his staff, Eisenhower scholars, and supportive families. Through strong schoolwide systems, intentional instruction, and a commitment to every child’s success, Eisenhower made meaningful academic gains and reduced chronic absenteeism.

👏 Congratulations to Principal Thomas and the entire Eisenhower Elementary team on this well-earned recognition and continued momentum forward!

Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a nice winter break. Today is the first day of class closures for those students who have been notified about not having up to date documentation related to their scholar's childhood immunizations. If your child still requires immunization assistance please take advantage of the clinic that will be held, all this week, in our Health Services department at the Administrative building. See the attached flyer for a link to signing up. We will take walk-ins if needed. https://forms.office.com/r/H2Biv3QLeL

👟💙 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! 👣✨
