FLINT, Mich. – In the wake of merging middle and high schools, some Flint School District students were not provided class assignments, according to MLive.
Flint officials are blaming the lack of class assignments on a software glitch and are attempting to fix the schedules manually, reports MLive.
A district spokesperson told MLive that parents should continue to send their children to school, even if they do not yet have a class schedule.
