A note on building evening hours
Our school building is open in the evening until
9:00 p.m. However, if your child needs to return
to school for any reason, an adult MUST
accompany the child to the classroom. For
security purposes, please do not enter the
classroom unattended. The evening custodian must
escort you to the classroom and wait in the
classroom until you have retrieved the item from
the room. At no time should anyone be in a
classroom unattended.
Winter has arrived at Forts Ferry

Forts Ferry St. Baldrick's event a great success
Thank you to all of the volunteers, shavees and
donors who donated countless hours to
prepare and work on the St. Baldrick’s event!
All of the team work resulted in over $12,000 in
donations to fight childhood cancer! Money is
still trickling in and a final grand total
should be announced soon. Thank you all for
helping to fight childhood cancer.
Label, label, label!
Please remember to label any and all things that
are brought into school – jackets, sweaters,
lunchboxes, books, etc. This not only saves you
from having to replace items, but it also saves
teachers, coaches and noon aides lots of time
looking for lost items.
School Banking Update
For those parents who were not able to attend
the Enrollment Night with Cap Com student
banking last week, we have a couple of ways to
help you get your student signed up.
