Reminder Information for the 2016-2017 School Year!

PTO
Today you received a PTO form in your folder. Please sign up for PTO!! It not only helps my classroom but also the school. All the money that is given to the school is used for your child(ren)'s classrooms and environment. My personal homeroom goal is to get 80% of my homeroom to sign up! The school goal is to get at least 75%. There are many incentives for homerooms who reach this goal as well, as the school reaching their goal.

Volunteer Training
All volunteers must be volunteered trained at the beginning of every school year. It takes 48 hours for Fulton County Schools to process the request, so please make sure you complete this process. Here is the link...http://www.fcsvolunteers.org/users/join


Food Policy
We have several students who have severe allergies. Make sure to send the food label with the ingredients 48 hours in advance, so I may send the label to the rest of the homeroom.

Room ParentsThe PTO is making a slight change to the room reps this year.  In the past we have ask for parents to sign up to be either an Academic Room Rep or a Social Room Rep.  This year, we are doing away with those distinctions.  We are seeking 2 co-room reps for each homeroom.  It will then be up to the 2 room reps to divide up duties as they see fit.  At this moment, I only have one parent who has signed up to assist in these areas. Please consider being the other room parent, I would REALLY appreciate it!

Attendance
Last year, around 50% of the BFES student body was absent for 10 or more days. Excessive absences directly correlates to not only class success, but also success on the GA Milestones.  Please keep this in mind when scheduling activities that overlap with school time.
