Reminders

We are keeping a close check on end of day school attendance. Please be mindful that students are learning all day and may be missing relevant instruction due to leaving before the school day ends without an excused absence.
When students leave early without an excused absence, this makes it very difficult on teachers and students to make up the work they have missed. Thank you for understanding.
We start school promptly at 7:50 and dismiss at 3:25 so please plan accordingly.
Please make sure you have finished registration. If you received a portal notice, you must go back in and complete registration.
Students may not bring toys (including Needohs) to school.
If your child is a car rider, please have their name marker in your vehicle where it is visible until the student(s) are safely in your car. You must call the office and leave a note to allow your student(s) to ride with someone other than approved drivers with the name marker. If you do not have it and we have no note from the office to verify, we will ask you to check your student out in the office. Thank you for help with this!
Any transportation changes for your child must be submitted no later than 2:30 PM each day. This deadline allows the front office enough time to communicate updates to teachers and ensure a safe dismissal process.
If you need to pick up your child, please do so no later than 2:50 PM so we can have students released before general dismissal begins. Please note that dismissal procedures are in place for safety and efficiency, so parents should not come to pick up students early simply to avoid the car rider line. All standard pickups should go through the car rider line.
Please adhere to the football game expectations below such as:

Students attending the football games are expected to be with their parent or other adult at all times. Trips to the restroom or concession stand are the exception. Students should return to the parent in a timely manner.
Students are not allowed to play on the grassy area, ramps, nor behind the stands. This is for the safety of everyone.
Students should not be running at any time, including in the bleachers and on the ramps/steps.
All student behavior is expected to be school appropriate.

If you would like to volunteer, please do so on the link HERE. We welcome your support in any capacity.

If you have questions or concerns about your student's grades, please schedule a conference with your child's teacher. We are happy to have those discussions and come up with a success plan.

If you have any concerns with your child's mental health, please schedule a meeting with our school counselor for guidance and support.

If you have any other general questions about technology, library, or other departments, please let us know - we have so many resources for our FISD families.

Please make sure to follow us on social media for upcoming events and information.

Bullying Prevention Month

As the school year progresses and the daily interactions with classmates happens students personalities are coming out. Learning to get along with others takes practice. At times, some situations become concerning.

Parents, school staff, and other caring adults have a role to play in preventing bullying. They can:

Help kids understand bullying. Talk about what bullying is and how to stand up to it safely. Tell kids bullying is unacceptable. Make sure kids know how to get help.
Keep the lines of communication open. Check in with kids often. Listen to them. Know their friends, ask about school, and understand their concerns.
Encourage kids to do what they love. Special activities, interests, and hobbies can boost confidence, help kids make friends, and protect them from bullying behavior.
Model how to treat other with kindness and respect.
