All school buildings will be closed today due to 119 United Teachers of Flint, MEA/NEA employees calling in sick today through the Districtās 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 me at 810-760-1000.
Principals and Cabinet, please ensure today that you are available as we will reach out to you in your school buildings for a possible conversation. Also, the only staff that should report are the Principals, and the secretaries. All Central Office reports.
Sorry for the inconvenience for our scholars and families.
