Attendance improves when kids feel noticed. Try a simple routine: “High five for being here today” or a weekly family shout-out for effort.

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!

🤝 Families + School = Attendance Success
Parents and guardians play an important role in helping students build strong attendance habits.
A few simple things can make a big difference:
✅ Talk about the importance of being at school and on time.
✅ Help establish morning and evening routines.
✅ Check PowerSchool regularly.
✅ Talk with your student about their attendance.
✅ Reach out to us when challenges come up.
At Fulton, we don’t want to wait until attendance becomes a major problem. We want to work with families early to find solutions and help students succeed.
Thank you for partnering with us!
Together, we can help every student be here, be on time, and be successful.

FLEX Seminar on Friday allows students who are not assigned to an intervention to select a choice activity. some fun happenings in the weight room with Mr. Woodman, STEM with Mr.Brown, and Choir with Ms. Peraino.
📈 What Happens When Absences Add Up?
We monitor attendance throughout the school year so we can support students before attendance becomes an even bigger challenge.
Students with regular attendance remain in Tier 1. Students who begin missing 5–10% of school days may move into Tier 2, while students missing 10% or more are considered Tier 3—chronically absent.
Moving into a higher tier doesn’t mean a student is simply being punished. It means we want to connect with the student and family, identify barriers, and provide support.
If attendance is becoming difficult, please reach out. We want to partner with you!
