23-24 FHS Weekly Update #5
August 21 - 25, 2023 (Office Hours 7:00 am to 3:30 pm)
No School - Friday, August 25th
Coming August 28th - Visitor Aware
As an additional effort to improve the safety and security of our buildings, each school will be implementing a visitor management system called "Visitor Aware" beginning next Monday, August 28, 2023.
Visitor Aware is a visitor management and screening service designed specifically to help secure our schools. Visitor Aware is used to ensure that only safe visitors are granted access to this location. This provides an additional layer of security for your children by validating the identities of anyone entering the premises, determining if they are a potential threat, and keeping accurate records of all school visits.
Please review the short "How to" videos and corresponding Infographics, as well as the Parent Welcome Packet for more information (links below).
Finally, be sure to have your Driver's License in hand the first time you visit our school so that you can get registered into our system. Once you have registered at a school, you are registered at all buildings throughout our district.
Thank you for your help with keeping our students and staff safe! #WeAreFenton

FHS Building Procedures - Medication, Attendance, Dress Code
Medications
If so, please make sure to complete and return a copy of the New FHS Medication Form (see link below). Prescription medications MUST remain in the original bottle. Over the counter medications should be small bottles, meant to get a student through the day/week.
NEW for 2023-24: The new medication authorization forms required physician's signature and office stamp EVEN for self-carry/self-administration medications, so plan ahead to get these forms completed PRIOR to the start of the school year.
Call Attendance Office (591-2609) for Absences & Late Arrivals
Call by Noon next day to excuse, when you receive reminder call
23-24 Updated Attendance Policy - see Impact for Exceeding 10 Days or Multiple Tardies
Attendance, Arrival/Dismissal & Closed Campus
Late Arrival/Early Dismissal/Sick Children
Please call the FHS Attendance Line (810) 591-2609 to excuse your student for appointments, illnesses, etc. Be sure to allow for ample time (at least 30 minutes) ahead of the appointment to get your child dismissed. Phone lines are checked every 30 minutes.
Students should ALWAYS report to the office to sign in late, sign out for an appointment or to go home sick. Students should NOT just text a parent then leave the building without checking out in the Main Office.
If parents/guardians call with enough notice, a pass can be issued and the parent/guardian can remain in the vehicle and have the student dismissed to meet them, saving time and being more convenient.
Attendance Reminders
Students are permitted a maximum of 10 absences per semester. There are two semesters per year (Aug - mid-January & mid-January to June).
Parents/students are able to see attendance on Parent Vue or Student Vue. Reminder communication goes out according to the following:
- Robocall goes out daily for unexcused absences
- 3 days of absence in a class: 3 day letter
- 7 days of absence in a class: 7 day letter
- 10 days of absence in a class: 10 day letter with offer to go on Attendance Plan (upon signed PLAN for next 9-10 weeks).
- Attendance Appeal: End of semester - provide new, better, different documentation of absences.
Closed Campus
School district policy does not permit a student to leave campus once they have been dropped off or at any time during the school day, particularly at lunch or during SRT. Any student needing to leave the school grounds must follow the Early Dismissal/Check Out procedure and obtain a pass from the Main Office. Failure to check out through the Main Office could result in disciplinary action. If the student has an appointment during the school day, parents/guardians must call in first thing in the morning in order to have the student excused.
Outside Food Deliveries
For the safety and nutritional needs of students as well as to reduce disruptions to the educational process, food deliveries to school grounds through outside delivery services (i.e. Uber Eats, Grub Hub, Door Dash, etc). and direct foodservice vendors (i.e. Panera, Jimmy John’s, Dominoes, etc.) must be pre-approved by school administrators.
Prior approval must also be obtained for parents wanting to deliver outside food items to his/her student and friends as this competes with what is sold in the cafeteria as part of the federal school lunch programs, creates confusion, incorrectly implies students can order food for delivery to the cafeteria, and arrangements must be made to find an alternate location for food consumption for the group.
After School Tutoring - Begins Monday, September 11th
After School Tutoring - Begins Monday, September 11th
After School Tutoring will be available Mondays - Thursdays (except on Staff Meeting Wednesdays 1x per month) from 2:40 to 3:20 p.m. Face to Face. After School Tutoring is free, but a permission slip must be on file PRIOR to participation.
Academic Teachers from all core content areas are present.
Students who have a permission slip on file will be allowed to stay after school for assistance. For more information, contact the Counseling Office at (810) 591-2612.

Positivity Project (P2) - Theme of the Week: Other People Matter
This week our school community will be focusing on the Other People Mindset. This means anything that builds relationships is going to make you happy.
The mission of the Positivity Project is to empower America’s youth to build positive relationships by understanding, appreciating, and exemplifying the character strengths in us all. People who have strong positive relationships do five things consistently - these are the five practices of the Other People Mindset. 1. Recognize the good in other people, 2. Recognize that everything you say or do affects other people, 3. Support others when they struggle, 4. Cheer people on when they succeed, 5. Remain present when giving people your attention. People who have a strong Other People Mindset are able to build and maintain strong, positive relationships with others.
While mental health is incredibly complex, we do know that positive relationships can help people become happier, healthier, and more resilient. And, the Positivity Project believes that educators have a huge opportunity and vital role to play in this endeavor. Our nation’s youth spends a large percentage of their time in school. By deliberately and consistently teaching students that relationships are important -- and that positive relationships are cultivated through character and the Other People Mindset -- educators can roll back these trends and create strong citizens and leaders for our communities and countries.
To practice and encourage the character strength of prudence with your child, please visit the Positivity Project’s P2 for Families (password: P2) where together you will watch a video, read a quote and talk about the answers to three questions.

1. Login/ Register - Sign in at www.parchment.com and click Sign Up to log in or register.
2. Add School - Click Get Started, and add high school(s).

Link to Slides Presentation:https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1xEvdPtDMNuGp5TDwdEuHF-QmRU8YlW_phkbOkTwlIx4/edit?usp=sharing
Note: Try to complete one college application every two weeks. This includes any essay, application, recommendations, etc. This will, hopefully, keep you from having to do this while ALSO balancing homework and back to school activities.
Free College Admission & Placement Resources
As you prepare to take your exam, it is critical to have a solid grasp of your current level of concept mastery to know your strengths and weaknesses in order to plan your studies accordingly.
By measuring your level of understanding of the concepts, topics, and ideas that you will encounter with Mometrix’s practice tests, you will be able to identify potential areas of improvement.
From there, Mometrix’s free college admissions and placement study resources will provide you with study tips and hints designed to equip you with the tools and knowledge you will need to succeed on test day.
