We Need Your Input: Before and After School Care Program Survey
We understand that some families may be interested in before and after school care at Francestown Elementary School. To better assess the needs of our community, we are gathering information on the specific days, times, and the number of families who would utilize such a program. We are still in the early stages of exploring different ways to implement this programming, and your input will be invaluable as we move forward. Please stay tuned for a survey or other communication where you can share your needs and preferences.

F.E.S. PTO
Come Join our FES PTO
Another summer is coming to a close and the FES staff are hard at work preparing for another fun year of learning. The FES PTO have been working to put together amazing programs to enrich the school year. We have the always popular pumpkin carving on Halloween and Crazy 8s in the winter. There will be the return of some past favorites such as after school hiking along with a few new surprises! Of course none of this happens without a little fundraising. Look for info about a color fun run and fall festival, the return of the Holiday Fair with a twist and the super fun Valentines Dance. We will try to keep families up to date about all of the activities through email and our Facebook page. If you are interested in becoming involved with the PTO, please reach out! We can't make these programs happen without family and community involvement.
Fundraiser
There are many ways to get involved with the PTO. We are reviving our mum sale! Order mums and support the PTO activities. With the retirement of our long time administrative assistant, Mrs. Ford, the position has been reimagined as part time. This means that FES could use parent volunteers to help in the office on Fridays. If you are interested, please see the SignUp Genius link below. One final note, we have parents that could use the help of other parents for before and after school child care. We are working on a community solution, in the meantime if you are able to help other parents, please reach out to the school or PTO.
