Josie the therapy dog made a paws-itively wonderful visit to our students as part of our PBIS program! 🐾💙
Smiles were everywhere as students lit up the moment they saw her. She brought plenty of wagging tails, warm snuggles, and calming joy to our school day. Thank you, Josie, for spreading so much happiness and helping make positive behavior even more rewarding! 🐶✨

📚✨ Senior Series at the Flint Public Library ✨📚
Today’s Senior Series session with was another powerful moment in this 8-month journey of preparing our students for life after high school. A dynamic panel of guests shared their HBCU college experiences and spoke about the importance of applying for college early.
Students had the opportunity to ask thoughtful questions, engage in meaningful dialogue, and gain real-world insight into college life and the application process. The level of student engagement was outstanding, and the conversation was inspiring and informative for everyone in the room.
Thank you to our panelists, and the Flint Public Library for continuing to create spaces that empower and educate our students as they plan for their futures. 🎓🙌🏽

Our students were all smiles as they enjoyed High Five Friday this morning! Every Friday in January, we’re starting the day with positivity and school spirit.
At 7:30 AM, music filled the building as staff came together to high-five students as they arrived and walk with them from breakfast to first period—setting the tone for a welcoming, supportive, and energized day.
Smiles, music, and high fives truly made for a great start to the morning, and our students loved it! 💙

Greetings, Southwestern families,
Following our earlier communication, I want to clarify and provide additional context regarding metal drinking cups. This was intended to be a recommendation and NOT implementation of a new policy. Policies are implemented by the board of education.
While we support students staying hydrated, metal cups have increasingly become a distraction to the learning environment and can be misused in ways that compromise safety. In some cases, these containers may be used to conceal prohibited items. Additionally, if dropped, thrown, or used during a physical altercation, metal cups can pose a safety risk to both students and staff.
We recommend that students bring non-metal, clear bottles instead.
We appreciate your partnership in helping us maintain a school environment that prioritizes safety, learning, and accountability for all students. If you have questions or need clarification, please feel free to reach out.
Thank you for your continued support.

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!
