FLINT, MI—Flint Community Schools is excited to announce the official Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony for the newly renovated Potter Elementary on Friday, September 13, 2024, at 10:00 AM. This momentous occasion marks the beginning of a new era for the school and the district. We invite all members of the Flint community to join us in celebrating this significant milestone.
As part of our ongoing commitment to providing the best possible educational environment for our scholars. The renovation of Potter Elementary represents just one aspect of our district-wide R4 initiative to Re-energize the Pride. Renovate the Plans. Rebuild the Possibilities. Repurpose for a Brighter Future!
These four pillars define the Flint Community Schools District’s approach to the future as we work together to create schools that inspire excellence and foster growth. Our vision for the district is built upon these key themes that reflect our core values and aspirations for our schools and the broader community:
Re-energize the Pride: Restoring pride in our schools, culture, and history by creating vibrant, supportive environments where every scholar feels valued and motivated to succeed.
Renovate the Plans: Updating our educational framework and infrastructure to meet the evolving needs of 21st-century learners.
Rebuild the Possibilities: Constructing new opportunities for academic achievement and personal growth, ensuring that every scholar has the resources they need to thrive.
Repurpose for a Brighter Future: Creating innovative spaces that serve not only our scholars but the entire community, offering opportunities for lifelong learning and engagement.
As we move forward together, the Flint Community Schools District is committed to creating an environment where every scholar can thrive,” said Kevelin Jones, Superintendent of Flint Community Schools. “This renovation is just a continuation of a district-wide effort to transform our schools into hubs of excellence and opportunity for generations to come.”
