Principal's Message January 6, 2017
|
|
|
It's not too late to donate tax credit money to our school. Your school tax credit donations can provide FHMS and 4P students with opportunities for after school programs, field trips, music and athletic programs or any clubs.
The Arizona tax credit program (A.R.S. 43-1089.01) allows a tax credit of up to $200 for individuals and up to $400 for married couples, filing jointly, in support of extracurricular activities. The tax credit reduces your tax burden to the state of Arizona, dollar for dollar. It also reduces your taxable income to the federal government, usually by 1/3 of your donation.
In order to take advantage of the tax credit donation for the 2016 tax year, you must make your donation by April 15, 2017. Send a check written out to FHUSD to school with your child. Every dollar makes a difference as every dollar is spent on programs for our students. Thank you for considering a donation to our schools

A Message for 7th Grade Students/Parents
All 7th grade students need a pair of earbuds they can use for school, as we are consistently using technology in science class.
Also, you can log into your academic Gmail account from home to access your Google Classroom and Google Drive. It's as easy as three simple steps:
1. Go to gmail.com and click sign in
2. Enter your 104 account username AND @fhacademics.org into the username box and click Next.
Example for John Smith = 104jsmith@fhacademics.org
3. Enter your 104 account password into the password box and click Sign In.
This will allow you access to your Google Classroom and Drive. Many homework and classwork assignments are posted and saved in these two locations. |
