SCHOOL DAY CHANGE
At their August meeting, the Fulton County Board of Education voted to approve the Superintendent's recommendation to
change the district's 2018-19 School Year Calendar.
This school year,
November 6, 2018 has been changed from a r
egular school day, to a teacher work day.
March 8, 2019 has been changed from a teacher work day, to a regular school day. The decision alleviates safety concerns raised by some parents and staff, allows for additional staff training on safety protocols, and maintains instructional time for our students. Additionally, our school board has expressed interest in addressing a long term solution through the legislative process.

- The student can bring a written note - including the student's name, grade, reason for dismissal and time of pickup - from the parent or legal guardian to the attendance office in the morning to receive a pass out of class.
- We cannot accept phone calls or emails to check students out.
- If an early dismissal note is not provided in the morning, a student may be called to the front office for check-out only when the parent/guardian or emergency contact arrives in the front office with a government issued ID (driver's license, passport, Fulton County employee ID).
- You may be asked to wait until a class change to check out your child.
- Students who are ill must checkout through the school clinic.
- Any student who leaves campus without following these procedures will be marked unexcused and may face an administrative consequence.
Your cooperation with this procedure is requested as it minimizes interruptions to classroom instruction.

FALL SCHEDULE CHANGES
The window for Fall Semester schedule changes has ended. While the majority of our students have full schedules for the entire 2018-19 school year, counselors will begin looking at Spring Semester holes in November to ensure that every student will have a full schedule on the first day of second semester. Please reach out to your counselor if you have any questions about your 18-19 schedule. Dual Enrollment (DE) Spring Semester The process for DE program students to register for Spring courses will begin soon. Visit your college's DE website to understand the process and deadlines you'll need to follow. Pay attention to and fully read the emails being sent from the college. Students should begin the process for Spring EARLY. This will allow students time to work through issues that may arise with the college, select preferred courses early before they close, and to provide MHS proof of Spring course enrollment in a timely manner. Fulton County has set a deadline of November 1st for paperwork and course registration. MHS' Dual Enrollment Coordinator, Julie Gracey, will begin sending out information to DE students about this process and what steps MHS will need students to follow later this month.
