The Delinquent and Ineligible (D & I) list runs weekly each semester beginning the third Monday. The first week on the list is a probation week to allow the student to improve from "F" to a passing grade. A failing grade in that class (or classes) the second week means the student is ineligible to participate in athletic contests, attend club meetings or activities that require leaving while school is in session. Ineligibility is valid Monday to Monday. The FSHS expectation is students pass all enrolled classes to be deemed eligible.

Fort Scott High School is proud to introduce the Rewards Lunch program, a new initiative designed to recognize and celebrate students who demonstrate outstanding commitment to their schooling.

To be excused 15 minutes before the scheduled start of lunch (11:54 a.m.), students must meet established standards in academics, attendance and behavior.

Academically, students must maintain all A’s and B’s across all enrolled courses, no grades of C, D, F or Incomplete. Attendance is equally vital to academic success. Students must have zero unexcused absences and cannot exceed three total absences during the quarter. Activity and medical absences do not count toward the three total absences. The Behavioral/Discipline standards are that the student must have no assignments of any of the following: lunch detention, Friday Night School, In-School Suspension (ISS), or Out-of-School Suspension (OSS).

Because consistency is key to success, student qualifications will be reviewed on a quarterly basis. The school emphasizes that Rewards Lunch is a privilege, not a right. To maintain a strong partnership between home and school, this privilege can be revoked at any time by school staff or by a student's parent or guardian. We encourage parents to discuss these standards with their children to help them earn and keep this rewarding opportunity.

The Rewards Lunch Permission Form (link below and your student will be provided a paper form) must be signed, dated, returned and on file in the office before the students who qualify will be allowed to participate. The Rewards Lunch Program will launch the week of September 7th.

Tiger Threads is bringing creativity, entrepreneurship, and school spirit to Fort Scott High School!

Through our Business Management pathway, our student-run business will hit the road with a mobile store, setting up at home football games and select sporting events throughout the fall.

Tiger Threads is more than just school apparel. Students will be creating and selling a variety of custom products, including apparel, car freshies, tumblers, engraved items, 3D-printed products, and more to come!

While we love creating Fort Scott High School-themed products, our students are also available for custom orders. Whether you need something personalized for an event, business, organization, gift, or just for fun, reach out to Tiger Threads and let us bring your idea to life!

The store is overseen by Mrs. Cummings and is currently powered by five students: Audrey Walker, Ahlonna Johnson, Justine Nguyen, Joci Johnson, and Maci Houldashelt. These students are gaining hands-on experience in design, production, marketing, customer service, business management, and entrepreneurship.

As the year gets underway, Tiger Threads hopes to grow both its product line and its student membership. We are excited to see what these students create and where this new venture takes them!

Be sure to stop by the Tiger Threads mobile store at upcoming home sporting events and support our student-run business! And remember—if you have a custom idea, Tiger Threads can help make it happen!
