FHSD Needs Your Input! Francis Howell School District invites all parents and community members to participate in a district survey to solicit feedback from residents about Francis Howell’s strengths, challenges, and priorities. Beginning on Feb. 20, Patron Insight, a Kansas City-based market research organization, will initiate a comprehensive patron opinion phone survey to 400 district households. The households will represent a cross-section of our residents representing all geographic parts of the district, people of all different ages, and everyone from newcomers to long-term residents. The 10- to 15- minute phone survey will touch on a wide variety of topics, and will include “pick one”-type questions, along with opportunities for residents to share their comments.
Community members who do not receive a phone call, but would like to share their input and participate in the survey can take the survey online.
Click here to take the survey. Survey responses will be anonymous and reporting will not identify individuals.
Following the completion of the survey the district will share the findings with the Board of Education and community. 3/6 Henry

PARENTS – With the cold and flu season upon us, please remind your student to go to the nurses office when not feeling well. Students have been texting parents from class stating they are not feeling well. For your convenience and to avoid disruption of class, it is important for students to come to our office to contact you. If the student needs to leave school, they can contact you from our office and be in our office waiting for you if pick up is required. That way, we are also aware of any illnesses present in our building. Also, please remember the policy adopted by the FHSD is to exclude students sent home with fever until the fever is gone for 24 hours without the use of acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Please help us control the spread of viral illness and disease by complying with our 24 hour exclusion policy after your child is sent home with a fever, or after developing a fever while at home. Thank you for your cooperation! FHN Nurse Office 3/1 JUNIOR PARENTS!!! Before long we’ll have graduating seniors too!

2014-15 Youth Spectator Guidelines
All students and children currently enrolled in the eighth grade and younger must be accompanied and directly supervised by an adult to be admitted to or remain at the event. We expect students and children to remain under the supervision of the adult that they are attending the event with.
Accompanying adults are asked to maintain diligent supervision of those youth spectators for which they have assumed responsibility the entire contest. Any youth spectators found to be without adult supervision will be returned to the adult(s) they came to game with. If their adults are unable to be found, they will be held outside the stadium until a responsible adult comes to pick them up or accompany them back to the game.
Sportsmanship/Cheering Expectations
For the enjoyment of all, the following expectations for fans, players, and students will be enforced:
