A special note of thanks for all of your support during our week of distance learning. We appreciate the extra hard work from our teachers and parents who helped ensure our students continued to learn. Thank you!

We have a 12:30pm Early Dismissal this Friday, January 14th. There will be NO AFTERCARE.

The second quarter ends this Friday, January 14th. Report cards will be posted on the Parent Portal on Tuesday, January 25th. If you need assistance logging into the Parent Portal, please contact Mrs. Greer at fawscomputer@fatherandrewwhite.org.

Remember to log your volunteer hours via our online recording form. After the quarter ends we will begin generating and printing our second quarter volunteer reports that will show your progress towards the goal. For those that don't plan to spend a lot of hours on one specific fundraiser, you should have about 18 hours accrued thus far to stay on track to meet your 35 hours/year goal. We appreciate all those that submit their hours in a timely manner to ensure accurate information reflected in their account over the course of this school year.

Also, please remember that FAW Service Scholarship families are required to accumulate $50 in profit from the SCRIP program. Did you designate where you would like any additional SCRIP earnings to go, via this Form?

Please visit our website for all the details/requirements regarding the FAW Service Scholarship (available for K - 8th grade families): https://fatherandrewwhite.org/volunteer-requirements/
