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.






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!

Did you know attendance can impact opportunities at school?
Students who meet attendance requirements may be eligible for school rewards and exam exemptions.
For exam exemptions, students should pay especially close attention: 4 or more absences in a class OR skipping any class means the student loses the privilege of exempting any exam for that quarter.
Help your student protect those opportunities by making attendance and being on time a priority!
Good attendance opens doors to more opportunities.



We want to take a moment to say THANK YOU to everyone who has helped provide team meals for our JV football players the night before their big games! ❤️
These meals are about so much more than just feeding our athletes. They give our boys a chance to come together, relax, laugh, encourage one another, and build relationships as a team before they step onto the field.
Team bonding is such an important part of football. The friendships, trust, and memories these boys are building off the field can make a huge difference when they are on the field together. There is something special about sitting down as a team, sharing a meal, and reminding each other that they are part of something bigger than themselves.
Your generosity and support mean more than you may realize. Every meal provided is another opportunity to show these young athletes that their community believes in them and is cheering them on.💙🏈
Go Pirates! 🏴☠️💪

A few missed days can add up quickly, which is why we encourage families to regularly check attendance in PowerSchool.
Attendance is tracked by marking period, and all absences count toward a student’s attendance total except school-sponsored absences.
Our goal is for students to maintain regular attendance and strive for 5—missing fewer than 5% of school days.
Take a minute this week to check PowerSchool with your student and talk about how they’re doing.
Knowing the numbers is the first step toward improving attendance!


We’re kicking off a series of attendance reminders for the 2026–27 school year. Our goal is simple: help every student be here, be on time, and be successful.
Over the next few days, we’ll share information about how attendance is tracked, our attendance tiers, rewards and exam exemptions, and how we work with families when attendance becomes a concern.
Our goal: Strive for 5! We want our students to miss fewer than 5% of school days.
Every day matters. Every class matters.


💊 Medication Reminder for Families
For the safety and well-being of all our students, all medications and medical treatment supplies must be brought to the school office and dispensed from the office.
Please remember:
• All required medication forms must be completed before medication can be given at school.
• Medications may not be kept in lockers or carried by students.
• Please contact the office before sending medication to school.
Thank you for helping us keep our students safe, healthy, and ready to learn!

Beating the heat never tasted so sweet. We truly appreciate your kindness and thoughtfulness in keeping our entire school community cool!
