End-of-the-year iPad Collection
As we near the end of the school year, we will be collecting student iPads and chargers. To help prepare for the process, and to avoid fee’s, please note the following:
- Please make sure any stickers are removed before the collection date.
- District issued Apple chargers (containing barcodes) will be collected with the iPad.
- Non-Apple chargers and cords are not accepted and will be returned to the student.
- Invoices will be sent home for damaged or missing items.
If you have questions or concerns about the condition or status of the iPad, case, charging brick and/or charging cord, please reach out to Mrs. Cichocki, our Media Specialist, as soon as possible – Dorothy.Cichocki@fraserk12.org
Please note all devices are to be turned in. Students participating in summer programs will receive their iPad and charger back during summer school.
6th Grade Field Day
On Wednesday, May 24th, 6th-Grade Field Day was held on the FHS Athletic Field. 6th-grade students from across the district competed in track & field type games for their school's pride. Disney performed well and the students had a GREAT time. We truly appreciate our PE teachers and Mr. Redshaw, FPS Athletic Director, for planning such a wonderful event for our students. A huge thank you to our dedicated chaperones and our families for your contributions by donating snacks, water, and helping our students be prepared!
Our staff is so proud of our Disney 6th graders for pulling together and supporting not only each other but other teams too! Since the fall, our 6th graders set a goal to earn the Sportsmanship Award at field day. Throughout the year, our 6th graders have learned valuable lessons on working together, sportsmanship, collaboration, and conflict resolution. Being recognized for sportsmanship spoke volumes recognizing effort and a goal-oriented focus to do our Disney Best! It's a group effort and we are so proud of all our 6th grade students!
Congratulations Disney 6th Graders for bringing home the Sportsmanship Award from Field Day 2023!
First Grade Visits the Farm
First grade had so much fun at the farm! We learned about cows, goats, sheep & chickens. We even got to work as a team to make butter! Exploring the farm, petting animals, and going on a hayride to the fairy trail were some highlights from the trip!

FHS Class of 2023 returns to Disney
It is a tradition that our graduating Fraser High School students return to their Elementary school and revisit where their educational journey began. On Friday, May 26th, we welcomed the Disney Elementary 6th grade class of 2017 back to the halls of Disney to congratulate them on completing their last day of high school!
