Head of School Search Update

REMINDER: October 6th is the deadline to complete the FASRI Head of School Search Community Survey. The Search Committee wants to hear from all members of our community (parents, faculty, and staff) during the process of selecting the next leader of FASRI. Your feedback will help us identify and attract candidates that best match the unique needs and culture of our school. Please click here to access the survey, and thank you for your input! 

 
Afterschool policies update

We are reviewing a few policies regarding the lunch, recess and after-school programs in order to improve them and continue to ensure the safety and security of our students. More information on the progress will be sent soon in a separate message. 

 

In the meantime: 

  • Please remember to register your child for La Garderie (general after-school care) at least 24 hours in advance to ensure we have appropriate staffing.
  • Please wait for your children at the school, not the park, when collecting them from La Garderie.
 
Open Classrooms: Save the Date

Each fall, FASRI opens its classrooms for parents to observe their children in their academic environment. These mornings are always fun and informative for our parents, and we hope you will be able to join us for one of them. 

  • October 16-18, Pre-K through grade 8 
  • November 6-8, Maternelle

Easy Money for FASRI

FASRI families raise money each year for our school through the Easy Money program and Cafe Days (click the link to learn about all of the different ways you can easily help!). Last year we donated the entire cost for the fabulous new theater curtain, and we need your ongoing participation. 

 

Easy Money envelopes are located in the FASRI office and outside each maternelle classroom. For more information Karen Eberhart, Easy Money Coordinator at [email protected]. Thank you for your help!
