A Word from the Principal, Mr. Wright

Dear Fitzgerald Families,


Congratulations on a successful first week of school! We are thrilled to have all of our Team Fitzgerald students and families back for another exciting year of learning and growth. Thank you for helping make the opening days of school such a positive experience for our students.


As we continue through the school year, maintaining strong communication between home and school is essential. We encourage all families to stay connected with their child's teacher and ensure that you have downloaded and can access your ParentVUE account. ParentVUE provides important information about your child's grades, attendance, and other school updates throughout the year.


I would also like to thank you for your continued support with our arrival and dismissal procedures. We are seeing improvements each day, and your cooperation is helping us create a safe and efficient experience for all students. Please continue to follow our established routines and procedures closely.


As a reminder, vehicles should make a right turn onto campus during morning arrival. This procedure helps prevent safety concerns at the intersection and allows our buses to enter campus safely and efficiently. We appreciate your adherence to this expectation and your commitment to keeping our students safe.


Thank you for your partnership and support. I look forward to a wonderful year ahead as we work together to ensure every child has a successful and rewarding school experience.


Sincerely,


George Wright
Principal
Fannie W. Fitzgerald Elementary School

Sign your Student In and Out using ParentVUE📱 Sign your Student In and Out using ParentVUE📱

Our school will now use KioskVUE, a self service Sign-in and Sign-out system, for students who arrive late and those who get picked up early. You will need to make sure you have the ParentVUE (new) app downloaded on your phone and have your Back-to-School packet completed in order to have access to your account. This will help improve attendance accuracy and safety measures for all students. View the video below to see how quick and easy this new feature works!
