MOVING OVER THE SUMMER?
MOVING OVER THE SUMMER?
Summer is often a time when families move and transfer their children to another school. If this is something that your family is planning, please let the Counseling Office know as it is helpful to know which students are not returning and where they are going. A Fulton County Withdrawal Form needs to be filled out, if you are moving. Of course, the student's records will be sent once a Request for Records is requested by the new school through ScribOrder: https://fultonga.scriborder.com/
Please contact Barbara Pieper with any questions, 470-254-8244 or Pieperb@fultonschools.org

FCS COVID 19 Reporting Procedures
FCS COVID 19 Reporting

If your child is sick, please keep them home. Families are still required to report a confirmed positive case of COVID-19, a pending COVID-19 test result (regardless of the reason for testing), and a direct contact with a person who is COVID-19 positive.
