🎉 Happy Custodian Day! 🎉
Today, we want to take a moment to give a HUGE thank you to our amazing custodians — Amber, Clay, Mitch, and Madilyn! 🧹💙
Thank you for everything you do each and every day to keep our school clean, safe, welcoming, and running smoothly. So much of what you do happens behind the scenes, but your hard work makes a BIG difference to our students, staff, and entire school community.
We appreciate your dedication, your flexibility, and all the little (and not-so-little!) things you do to take care of our school.
Thank you, Amber, Clay, Mitch, and Madilyn, for all that you do! We are so lucky to have you! ❤️👏

📢 WORK PERMITS ARE CHANGING — EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 2
Beginning today, October 2, 2026, Michigan is changing how youth work permits are issued.
What’s changing?
Work permits will no longer be issued through Fulton Schools. Instead, students and employers will use Michigan’s new Youth Employment Permit Portal (YEPP) through the Michigan Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity (LEO).
🔹 Students under 18 still need a work permit.
🔹 New work permits will be completed online through YEPP.
🔹 Students will no longer need to come to the school office to get a new work permit.
🔹 Existing school-issued permits remain valid as long as the student stays with the same employer and at the same worksite.
🔹 Students who start a new job or change worksites after October 2 will use the new online system.
The online system is available 24/7, so students and employers can complete the process without needing to coordinate with school office hours.
👉 Youth Employment Permit Portal:
https://www.michigan.gov/leo/bureaus-agencies/ber/wage-and-hour/youth-employment-standards-act-yesa/yepp?utm_source=chatgpt.com
Please share this information with your student if they are currently working or planning to get a job.
Thank you for helping us make this transition!

This Wednesday, our school will be participating in the annual Gratiot County Suicide Awareness Walk during our Seminar hour (9:50 AM – 10:40 AM).
This event gives our school community a dedicated moment to show support for mental health awareness, honor lost lives, and remind every student that help and hope are always available.
Important Details:
Participation is Optional: We recognize mental health can be a sensitive topic. Students who choose not to participate in the walk will remain in designated classrooms for structured study time, PSAT prep, and IXL practice.
Support Services: School counselors and support staff will be available throughout the morning for any student who needs someone to talk to.
If you have questions or would prefer your student participate in the study session instead, please feel free to contact the school office by emailing mshs@fultonpirates.net
If you or someone you know is struggling, call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline 24/7.

This morning (9/21/26) Fulton Middle/High School and Fulton Elementary School conducted an A.L.I.C.E. Safety Drill. THIS WAS ONLY A DRILL!
👟💛 A HUGE thank you to Cory Meyerer! 💛👟
This month, Fulton Schools was the lucky recipient of a carload of Adidas shoes donated by Cory Meyerer, a friend of Ms. Bodine, for our students! What an incredibly generous way to support kids in our community.
Having a good pair of shoes can make a real difference for a student, and we are so grateful that Cory thought of our students and wanted to help.
Thank you, Cory, for your generosity and for helping us make sure our students have what they need to be successful! 🏴☠️💙💛
Thank you, Cory! Our Fulton family appreciates you!
