The Pirate Store at FE is coming soon!!
Ahoy, Fulton Elementary families! Our Pirate Store is a place where students can turn their good choices into treasure. By earning Pirate Bucks, students will have the chance to shop once a month during lunch for prizes both big and small.
How to Earn Pirate Bucks:
Perfect Attendance each month
Be here all day, every day—no tardies, no early check-outs.
3 bucks will be given away each month that you have perfect attendance!
Good Behavior
Teachers, staff, and even lunch monitors can hand out Pirate Bucks for kindness, hard work, and following the Pirate Code.
The Pirate Store:
Open once a month during lunch.
Spend Pirate Bucks right away on small treasures or save them up for bigger loot!
Prizes in the Treasure Chest:
Stickers
Croc charms
Bracelets
Tumblers
Fulton Elementary swag
…and more treasures await!
The Pirate Store encourages our crew to show responsibility, teamwork, and school spirit—all while having fun sailing toward success!

Art Contest
Good morning!
I have heard from the contest coordinator (who is also having trouble with the entry form link) and she has asked that all submissions be turned in to me and I will fill out the entry forms with her. So, if your pirate is interested in participating please email me (cdaniel@rfisd.us) with their name, the type of art they made (painting, drawing, collage, etc.), and their 25 word artist statement by Friday, September 26th. I apologize for the short timeline but I hope your pirate participates and I am excited to see what they create! (the physical art pieces are still due to me by October 3rd with the title label on the back!)
Thank you,
Cora Daniel
Fulton Elementary Art Teacher
