Notes from the Office  

 

Flu Clinic November 19

A vaccination clinic will be held for our students on Monday, November 19, from 4:00 to 6:30 PM.

You may register online and the form will be sent directly to the clinic, or simply fill out a consent form when you arrive at the clinic. 

 

Your children will have the choice to receive the FluMist or the injectable vaccine.  Although insurance information will be collected, there is no out of pocket cost for any child, regardless of whether or not they have health insurance.

 

For more information, visit www.health.ri.gov or call the health info9rmation line at 401-222-5920.

 

Drop-off & Pick-up: No parking
Please help us keep pick-up and drop-off running smoothly by passing along the "no parking" rule to anyone who drops off or picks up your children. Merci!

Lost and Found
Is your child missing something? Please check out lost and found, located under the bench across from the Main Office. There are lots of coats and other belongings that need claiming. Merci.

Afterschool & Language Center

 

Afterschool survey

The Afterschool Clubs survey is being sent today. You will receive a link to Survey Monkey; please respond by November 16. Your answers will determine the club curriculum for the Spring and future terms. A follow-up questionnaire will be sent to you at the end of the school year. I look forward to getting your answers and please contact me with any questions. 

 

Your children will be doing their own survey in Technology class with Mathieu (for CP-8th grades). Club registration for the Spring will be available from Dec. 21


Language Center classes are also being developed and we will be offering classes that will benefit the community at large - sign up for these classes will be available before December break.
Please remember to SIGN OUT your children from afterschool or you will be charged for the sessions.  
 

 

If you have any questions please contact Anne at alkapstein@fasri.org or 401-274-3325
