Pike Schools Focus on Flint
Pike High School is leading our district in an effort to help our neighbors in Flint, Michigan by creating the
Pike Schools Focus on Flint initiative to raise money for the heavy costs the schools will bear due to the long
term issues associated with lead poisoning in children.
They will be selling Pike Schools Focus on Flint t-shirts, buttons, and stickers, in all of our schools starting on
March 1. In support of this effort, the Superintendent has granted special permission for students and staff
members who purchase a t-shirt to wear their shirt with jeans on Thursday, March 17, to show our solidarity
with the students, teachers, and citizens of Flint, Michigan. Because of the amazing support of Pike high
school clubs, classes, and other Pike community sponsors for our initiative, we will be able to send all proceeds from the sale of these items directly to the Flint Schools.
Please find the t-shirt art below and consider supporting this wonderful effort!
