We are so glad to be back in the swing of school again!

September 2019 Newsletter
 

The halls are alive with the sound of children!  We are so glad to see everyone again and kick off the new school year.

Make sure you stop by the teachers' bulletin boards throughout the school year. They will display student work, pictures of students, documentation of the learning process, and handouts of helpful hints for parents.


Please read on to find out about all the great things happening at FMS!


Tuition statements have been emailed from Brightwheel!
Check your email for your September billing statement that was sent on 9/1/19.  Also, keep in touch with your child's teacher and view pictures of classroom activities through this convenient app.

Birthday Policy Reminder:
This is a reminder that per our Handbook (pg. 19), parents may send special birthday napkins for use during snack time to help commemorate their child's birthday.  We will sing happy birthday and send home special mementos to mark the day.  FMS will not host birthday parties.  Please do not send food of any kind, balloons, or treat bags to school.  Invitations for parties hosted outside of school will only be distributed if an invitation is provided for each child in the class.  Invitations will not be distributed to classes for which the birthday child is not enrolled.  Thank you for your cooperation!
