Fulton Focus

As part of our District's Strategic Plan, we will again be surveying students (grades 6-12), parents/guardians, and staff to gather information to assess the climate and culture of Fulton Public Schools. These anonymous surveys were emailed to the respective groups Monday, October 23rd and the findings will be used to support continuous improvement planning. We encourage you to take this opportunity to provide your feedback on our schools.

Students (grades 6-12) received 2 surveys; the School Quality Survey, and the Student Engagement Survey.

Parents/Guardians received the School Quality Survey.

Staff received 2 surveys, the School Quality Survey, and the Employee Engagement Survey.

Please note that the surveys will close Friday, November 3rd.

All 6 of our buildings will have Chromebooks set up during Fall Conferences allowing families the opportunity to complete the survey.

Below is a PDF print of each of the surveys for your review.

A feature within Infinite Campus allows families to see their students' attendance history and receive notifications when attendance has been updated (marked Absent, Tardy, etc.) These notifications will be sent via the methods chosen in your notification settings.

If you would like to no longer receive notifications when your student’s attendance has been updated, please follow these steps:

1. In the top right corner, select the Account Icon and choose “Settings”.
2. Select “Notification Settings”.
3. Uncheck the boxes next to “Attendance”.

It is important to note that you can still view your student’s attendance regardless of the notification preferences you set.

Please reach out to your student’s school if you have any questions.

The Fulton Public School District relies heavily on email and text messaging for communications with parents.

Please make sure your email address and phone number are correct in your Parent Portal.

You may have noticed a new School Violence Tip Line link on our Fulton58 website under the For Parents and Community tab. This is an anonymous tip line linked to the Missouri Highway Patrol's Courage2Report Missouri. To prevent school violence, they offer three ways to anonymously report a concern. When a tip is submitted it immediately goes to law enforcement and notifies the school administrators. Please take the time to watch the video below, and to read the Student and Parent Frequently Asked Questions.
