Weekly Monday Message from Ms. Grace
Dear La Escuela Fratney Families,
This is Ms. Grace with your weekly Monday Message.
We had a wonderful week at Fratney with a parent meeting, our attendance competition, and the food bag distribution—thank you to Amanda and all SEC parents who helped!
This week we celebrate National School Psychology Week (Nov. 3–7, 2025)! We want to give a big shoutout and share our gratitude for Ms. Cindy, our amazing school psychologist, for all she does to support our students.
November is here, and we only have 14 school days this month. Please check your child’s backpack and blue folder for the November calendar. A new monthly attendance competition begins this week—remember, every day counts!
On Friday, November 21st, we will celebrate the end of the first trimester with our first theme presentations at 10:00 a.m. and 2:45 p.m. Families are invited to attend! K3 and K4 students in Ms. Ivonne’s and Ms. Rubio’s classes will sing and dance, and our 2nd graders will perform as well.
That evening, Friday, November 21st, we’ll also host our annual Multicultural Family Night, celebrating our community’s cultural heritage. Families are encouraged to bring food or items that represent your culture. Please review the flyer in your child’s backpack and return it as soon as possible if you’d like to participate.
Thank you for your continued support and partnership. Let’s have a great week, Fratney!
Warmly,
Ms. Grace
Mensaje Semanal de los lunes de Ms. Grace
Estimadas familias de La Escuela Fratney:
Les habla la Sra. Grace con su mensaje semanal del lunes.
Tuvimos una semana maravillosa con una reunión de padres, la competencia de asistencia y la distribución de bolsas de comida. ¡Gracias a Amanda y a todos los padres del Consejo de Participación Escolar (SEC) por su apoyo!
Esta semana celebramos la Semana Nacional de la Psicología Escolar (3–7 de noviembre de 2025). Queremos reconocer y agradecer a la Sra. Cindy, nuestra increíble psicóloga escolar, por todo lo que hace para apoyar a nuestros estudiantes.
Ya llegó noviembre y solo tenemos 14 días de clases este mes. Por favor revise la mochila y la carpeta azul de su hijo(a) para ver el calendario de noviembre. Esta semana comienza una nueva competencia mensual de asistencia — ¡recuerde que cada día cuenta!
El viernes 21 de noviembre celebraremos el fin del primer trimestre con nuestras presentaciones temáticas a las 10:00 a.m. y 2:45 p.m. ¡Todas las familias están invitadas! Los estudiantes de K3 y K4 de las clases de las Sras. Ivonne y Rubio cantarán y bailarán, y los estudiantes de segundo grado también presentarán.
Esa misma noche, viernes 21 de noviembre, tendremos nuestra Noche Multicultural Familiar, una celebración de nuestras herencias culturales. Las familias están invitadas a traer comida u otros artículos que representen su cultura. Por favor revise el volante en la mochila o carpeta azul de su hijo(a) y devuélvalo lo antes posible si desea participar.
Gracias por su apoyo y colaboración continua. ¡Que tengan una excelente semana, Fratney!
Con aprecio,

Notes from Title One Parent Meeting Last Week
Due to interest in a family movie night and fundraising for additional family events, we are proposing a family movie night in December that would be free for all students and families but that parents could donate concessions to sell. The proceeds from this upcoming movie night would go to the PTO account to support food for upcoming family and student events since school budgets are never allowed to purchase food for family meetings, students, etc. Please answer this brief survey to show interest in a family movie night in December and fundraising for family and student events in the future. Our next family meeting will be Wednesday, November 19th at 5 pm. If you are interested in helping plan and organize this or other upcoming family events please join us.
Give Ms. Grace and school staff feedback with this 3 question survey here
https://forms.gle/ariTLoPUexgagXze6
Debido al interés en una noche de cine familiar y a la necesidad de recaudar fondos para otros eventos familiares, proponemos una noche de cine familiar en diciembre, gratuita para todos los estudiantes y sus familias. Los padres pueden donar refrigerios para vender. Los fondos recaudados se destinarán a la cuenta de la Asociación de Padres y Maestros (PTO) para financiar la comida de futuros eventos familiares y estudiantiles, ya que el presupuesto escolar no contempla la compra de alimentos para reuniones familiares, estudiantes, etc. Les pedimos que respondan esta breve encuesta para mostrar su interés en la noche de cine familiar de diciembre y en la recaudación de fondos para futuros eventos familiares y estudiantiles. Nuestra próxima reunión familiar será el miércoles 19 de noviembre a las 5 p. m. Si les interesa ayudar a planificar y organizar este u otros eventos familiares, los invitamos a participar.

MPS visitor policies are designed to keep students and staff safe
Wednesday, September 24, 2025
Every day, MPS staff are working to make schools safe and positive for students and staff. Respect is the key to a positive school environment inside MPS buildings and on school grounds. When students, families, and staff show respect for one another, teaching and learning can take place and our schools can be successful. We encourage everyone to show respect by:
Remaining calm
Using kind language
Listening to and following staff instructions
Working toward solutions together
Visitor Policy and Procedures
The safety of students and staff is a top priority in the district. Because we welcome families in schools, we want everyone to understand the procedures for visiting MPS buildings. This will help everyone know what to expect and make visits go more smoothly.
All visitors must:
Schedule any meetings with school staff in advance.
Visitors are limited to TWO per student for meetings, conferences, and classroom visits unless approved by the building administrator or designee.
Use the designated main entrance.
Report to the office/security desk.
Show a form of identification. Everyone age 14 and older must present a school ID, driver license, or other photo ID.
Sign in and out on the MPS Visitor Record.
Be escorted to and from the requested location.
Wear/display the MPS Visitor Pass at all times while in the school.
Return the Visitor Pass to the office/security desk and sign out.
Student Behavior Concerns
To protect our students, if anyone has a concern about student behavior, the behavior must be reported to a staff member and/or the child’s teacher or further action. No one should attempt to confront, discipline, or punish another parent or guardian’s child. The district has many procedures in place along with a Student Code of Conduct that describes disciplinary actions. Misbehavior and violations of the code of conduct will be handled according to district processes in place. The Student Code of Conduct can be found in the Parent/Student Handbook on Rights, Responsibilities, and Discipline at mpsmke.com/rights.
We appreciate everyone’s cooperation to keep our schools safe.
Concerned About A possible bullying incident? Complete this form
There will be one calendar for the whole district again this year. Please review this calendar before making plans for trips or vacations. Students must be in school 95% of the time or more which means they can only miss 1 day a month the whole school year. Students who miss more than 10 days of school a year fall behind academically and socially. Make a plan now to be in school every day on time.
