Good Afternoon Flat Rock Families,
As the school year comes to an end, I can't help but feel thrilled about the upcoming summer and the possibilities it holds for everyone in the community. I hope that you and your families will find time to unwind, rejuvenate, and discover all the wonderful things that Michigan, or wherever your summer takes you, has to offer.
I want to take this moment to express my gratitude to all of you for entrusting us with the education and well-being of your children. It is a privilege to be able to work with them, and we never take that trust for granted. The support and confidence that the community has in us is truly appreciated, and we are committed to providing the best possible learning environment for our students.
The past school year has had its share of challenges, achievements, and opportunities, and I continue to be amazed by the dedication and resilience of our students and staff. The sense of unity and support within Flat Rock Community Schools is truly remarkable, and I am honored to serve as the superintendent.
As we look ahead to the summer, I wanted to provide an update on some of the projects that will be taking place. Our contractors will begin work on the HVAC project at Simpson Middle School as soon as the students leave for the summer break. You may have already noticed the new sign boards at Bobcean, Barnes, and SMS, and renovations are underway at the elementary school media centers. Additionally, new bleachers will be installed at SMS, and district-wide upgrades such as the new roof and the installation of the Smartboot at the Early Childhood Center are also in progress.
I want to acknowledge that the summer will be a busy time for the school district, especially with the upcoming Bond work. We are eager to enhance our learning environment and while there may be some inconveniences during this process, we are excited about the positive changes it will bring. More information about the Bond work completed and future plans can be found in the attached flyers.
I am looking forward to seeing our school district continue to grow and improve, and I am grateful for the ongoing support from the community. Wishing everyone a wonderful summer filled with relaxation, fun, and new experiences.
Have a great summer!
Thank you for your consideration in this matter and, as always, GO RAMS!
