Fraser High School will once again be offering after school credit recovery. Credit recovery is open to students who have previously failed a core academic course. If you are interested in having your student participate in this opportunity, please read the details below. A Google link is provided for ease of registration.
Credit recovery class schedule is as follows:
Dates: 1/17/23 to 6/6/23 (No class on early release days.)
Days: Monday through Thursday
Times: 2:30 p.m.-3:30 p.m.

Once registration closes, you will be contacted regarding your student’s enrollment status. If your student does not secure a credit recovery spot, other options will be discussed at that time.

Students may not wait after school for evening activities, games or practices. Credit recovery starts at 2:30pm, if students are not in the class by 2:30pm they will not be allowed to enter.

Dear Senior Parents:
Please use the link below to type the name you wish to be placed on your child's high school diploma. Student name must be their LEGAL name, no nicknames. It can include middle name, middle initial or be left out completely. Most students choose to spell it out. Please use upper and lower (A, a) case letters appropriately as this is how it will be printed. Failure to respond will result in your child's name to be printed how it is in PowerSchool.

Class of 2023 Cap and Gown Ordering
Seniors! Ordering a cap and gown is an important part of taking place in the graduation ceremony. The link below is a direct link to the standard cap and gown package. If you would like to order additional senior gear from Josten’s, please feel free to visit their site at Jostens.com for a list of options. Orders for cap and gowns need to be in by February of 2023.
Additionally, students are not allowed to have decorated caps for the graduation ceremony. Some students like to have a decorated cap for the senior walk. Students who like to do this have done one of two things:
- Ordered an extra cap so they could decorate that one
- Decorated a piece of poster board or cardboard and taped it to their cap for the walk and could remove it for the ceremony.

Class of 2023 Yearbook Photos
The deadline to get your senior photo in the yearbook is here. The photo you take for your student ID is not the photo used for your senior year. You must go to a professional photographer and get a portrait taken. We recommend Sieloff Studios. If you take your photo with a different photographer, the deadline is December 9th to hand in or email the photo to Mr. Flanagan. Sieloff is booked up and is taking appointments until January 1st. Call them now. If the cost of a photo is an issue, see or email Mr. Flanagan privately.
Call Sieloff at 791-5000
