dear fisherville families,

we hope that you have all started 2024 in a happy and healthy way. 

here at fisherville sps, the safety of our students, our staff and our families is our number one priority. 

parking lot

you may use the school parking lot if you are coming into the building to visit the office/meet with a teacher.  please be very careful in the parking lot.  reduce your speed and be very vigilant of cars/people walking in the lot.

walking to school

most of our students walk to school each day.  please remind them to refrain from wearing ear buds or using their cell phones.  this creates a very unsafe situation for them.  they need to be aware of their surroundings at all times.

wearing clothing for the weather and having the appropriate footwear is essential, especially during the cold winter.  slides and crocs are not permitted at school.  students must wear closed toed shoes such as running shoes, boots. 

physical education

we ask our students to have an indoor pair of shoes to wear in the gym.  students who do not have running shoes will not be able to participate in the gym.  students must change into comfortable clothing in order to participate.

school schedule

our school starts 9 a.m.  the school doors are open at 8:40 for children to come in and head to the cafeteria.  we serve morning snack to students who are registered in the nutrition program.  students make their way to their lockers at 8:50 then go to class.  students must be in class by 9 a.m.  anyone who arrives after 9 a.m. is considered late, and must get a late slip from the office.  this late is recorded on a student's report card.

cell phone policy

the use of air buds and cell phones are not permitted in school.  the only time a student may use their cell phone is if a teacher allows them to do so. 

lunch program

our lunch program is from 11:30 a.m.  to 12:25 p.m.  students eat in the cafeteria and then go outside until 12:25 p.m.  please help us by ensuring your child has a healthy lunch.  pop is not allowed at school.  our school is a peanut free environment.
