Dear Fulton Families,
We are looking forward to having you join us for Back to School Night this week. This is a great time for parents/guardians to meet your child's teacher and learn more about what your child will be learning this school year. These nights are information heavy, as such we encourage you to have your children stay at home, if possible.
If you are unable to join us for Back to School Night, we will post all grade level/department slides on our website so you can access them. Additionally, if you have specific questions regarding your child, please reach out to your child's teacher.
Our first PTA meeting will take place after Back to School Night this evening at 7:00pm. It will take place in the cafeteria.
Warmly,
Dr. Burks, Mrs. Sillers, & Mrs. Brickner
This week, we ask that we take a moment as a community to remember and honor those who served and were lost on September 11, 2001.
Counseling Corner
Mrs. Santangelo and Mrs. Shields are our School Counselors this school year! Mrs. Santangelo will support students in grades K and 1 and Mrs. Shields will support students in grades 2, 3, 4, and 5. The school counseling program encompasses classroom lessons, individual counseling, counseling groups, and lunch bunches. This will enable all students to experience educational success by providing guidance in the areas of academic, career, and social/emotional development. We look forward to collaborating with staff and families to ensure students have a happy and healthy school year!
