WHY IS MY CHILD BEING COUNTED ABSENT?? WHY IS MY CHILD'S GRADE LOW?
What Parents Need to Know about how students are graded and counted present for instruction!
Be online, Be engaged, Complete Assignments... Be Counted! Pay attention to reminders below:
- Student attendance is monitored.
- A student's minutes online, assignment completion and participation, are important aspects of being engaged in learning and being counted as present.
- Please ensure that your students are in class on time and are engaging in Literacy, Math, and other content areas to be counted present for the day.
- Students that fail to return for classes will be documented as "skipping". This will result in a referral to our student support team.
- Parents should provide written documentation for early check-out for medical appointments in both face to face and remote settings. (documents can be emailed to the front office at hallsr@fultonschools.org )
Introducing-- the COVID NINE-TEEN Project! An international Project to support students (not an FCS activity)
WHAT IS THE COVID NINETEEN PROJECT?
Teens mentor elementary school students to keep them motivated and active during quarantine, as well as taking stress off parents by providing daily activity sessions and one-on-one tutoring. (This is not a Fulton County Schools Project... teens are from all over the world)
ACTIVITY HOURS
Monday - Friday: 2:00 - 5:00 PM PST
Saturday - Sunday: 9:00 AM - 3:00 PM PST

An email with the Zoom link will be sent 2 hours prior to the start of the session.
All supplies needed for the activity will be added onto our website prior to the session.
TUTORING
- You may now only sign your child up for ONE HOUR per day.
- Signing up for one hour does not guarantee your child a full hour due to high demand and time constraints.
- Our Late Sign Up Policy still applies (you must sign up by 9:00 PM PST the night before the session for it to be recorded).
- You will be sent 2 Zoom links.
- You can choose either, but if you have a tutor preference, be sure to check the daily schedule attached to the email to see who will be in each session. However, we cannot guarantee that you will be matched with the specific tutor of your choice.
- Additionally, if the Zoom session your child is in becomes full, you may be asked to use the second link you were provided and switch to the other session.
