Short history of Williams Elementary School in Flint, Michigan explored.

Williams Elementary School opened its doors in 1967 as T. Wendell Williams Community School. Williams Elementary would later on feed into Lowell Junior High School as many elementary schools in the Eastside community would. Williams Elementary School was built to relieve increasing enrollment at Lewis Elementary School (Lewis School). Which worked for a while. However it too had faced financial budget cuts along with numerous public schools on the Eastside of Flint. Declining enrollment was a factor as well. Williams Elementary School had finally closed in 2010.

Williams Elementary School was considered to be an explementary school by Michigan Board of Education at one point in time. Yes, Williams Elementary School was considered as a great school in the community. Many parents had sent their children to this school because they were thrilled with the academic excellence that Flint Community Schools were producing and putting out.

Williams Elementary School is now used as storage for the school district and classes for teachers who work for Flint Board of Education and Flint Community Schools.

The Williams Elementary School is located on Utah Avenue, Flint, Michigan, US 48506.
