PUBLIC NOTICE - FLINT BOARD OF EDUCATION: Monday, December 22, 2025, Special Board Meeting at 4:30PM. FCS Administration Building, 923 E. Kearsley St., Flint, MI 48503. This special meeting is regarding the Northwestern High School building issues.
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!

Our seniors had a wonderful field trip today to the Flint Public Library as part of our ongoing eight-month Senior Series partnership! Students received a guided tour of the library’s many programs and services, learned about community resources, and even applied for their free library cards.
We’re excited for the months ahead as community speakers join us to share their knowledge and experiences — including Amanda Seeney, Jacob Blumner, Vicky Dawson, and Jenna McIntire. A special thank you to the University of Michigan–Flint Community Writing Center for being an important part of this series at the public library.
A big thank you to the Flint Public Library for welcoming our seniors and helping them connect to a world of learning beyond the classroom! 💙👏

Exciting news in our building! 🐟💙 Our sturgeon tank is officially up and running, and we’re thrilled to welcome Jagger, who arrived weighing 50.68 grams and measuring 220mm in length! A huge thank-you to our wonderful “stork,” Ann Douglass, for safely bringing him all the way from the Oden State Fish Hatchery near Indian River, MI. None of this would be possible without the incredible work and dedication of our Science teacher, Mrs. Stewart-Roberts. She has poured her heart into this project teaching, inspiring, and giving our students a truly unforgettable learning experience. We can’t wait to watch Jagger grow and to see all the learning that comes with this amazing opportunity! 🌊🐟💛 #Southwestern #JagNation #FCS
