Kindergarten Parents,
Because of the circumstances surrounding the pandemic, we are NOT able to do our normal Kindergarten Meet & Greet. However, that isn't going to stop our awesome Kindergarten team from meeting your kiddos before the upcoming school year!
We have a plan for our Kurbside Kindergarten here at the FGS on Tuesday, August 18 from 3-6PM. This will be an opportunity to meet your child's teacher, as well as drop off their school supplies.
Once your child's teacher has been announced, you will receive an email from them with options for time slots. Follow the link to sign up for your slot. If you are unable to bring your child, see if a family friend, relative, or classmate is available.
During your time slot, your family will -
- Drive through and locate your teacher (see attachment)
- Pull up to their location (wait in line if someone is already there)
- Roll down your windows and have your child introduce themselves
- Remain in your car with masks on for both your family & our staff's safety
- Give your child's school supplies to their teacher so they don't have to bring everything the first day of school
If there is inclement weather, our rain date will be Wednesday, August 19 from 3-6PM.
One final note is that no parents will be allowed in the building until further notice. Our first day of school, students will be dropped off in the grassy area in front of our district offices, just west in front of the building. More info to come on this later.
