PARENT INFORMATION

1. PLEASE PLAN AHEAD! The FMS parking lot will be closed on the morning of Friday, March 9th for our Civil War Living History event. There will be no cars allowed to park in the parking lot that morning. There will be one loop in the gate and out of the gate to drop off students. If you can drop your son/daughter off before the stop sign at 1st and A Streets and have them walk into the campus, this will ease congestion into the school.

3. FMS invites parents to use a computer in the front office that is dedicated to parents for using Parent Connect to check your student’s assignments and grades.
4. TDAP IMMUNIZATION – For the 2012-13 school year ALL students entering 7th grade will need proof of a whooping cough booster shot (TDAP) before starting school. By law, students who do not have proof of a TDAP booster shot will not be able to start school until proof is provided to the school.
