This morning at approximately 8:34 a.m., there was a report of a small fire in the school
cafeteria. The building was immediately and safely evacuated, and the Flint Fire
Department responded quickly to the scene.
The fire was contained to a food warmer and thanks to the swift actions of staff and the
fire department, the situation was brought under control within minutes.
Out of an abundance of caution, and due to smoke in the cafeteria, scholars were
dismissed for the remainder of the day. The rest of the building was not affected by the
incident.
The safety and well-being of our scholars and staff will always be our highest priority.
After evaluation, the building has been deemed safe for scholars and staff to return for
learning tomorrow.
We are incredibly grateful for the calm and quick response of our staff, the support of
the Flint Fire Department, and the understanding, patience, and cooperation of our
Freeman families during today's dismissal.
With gratitude,
Kevelin Jones
Superintendent, Flint Community Schools
