First Day of School Signs
FIND YOUR CHILD’S BUS STOP ONLINE
It is very important to check your child’s bus stop, as routes have been modified for the 2021–2022 school year.
Students will be assigned a route number in lieu of a bus number. The route number is located on the left side of the entry door. To ensure transportation, all students must be at their bus stop 10 minutes prior to the scheduled arrival time. Please be sure to review the bus rules with your child, which can be found on the Transportation Department’s website.
Free Breakfasts and Lunch Continue
The September Breakfast/Lunch menus are pictured below and can be accessed here. Please note, due to shortages in the food service supply chain, menu substitutions will occur.
FPS Mask Policies
Masks are optional for all staff, students and visitors on campus. We will have masks available in all of our buildings for anyone who needs one. Fraser Public Schools encourages everyone who is not fully vaccinated to wear a face covering. Facial coverings are a safe, and proven strategy to prevent secondary transmission of this aggressive Delta variant in schools. Masks are primarily intended to reduce the emission of virus-laden droplets. They also help reduce inhalation of these droplets by the wearer. We ask everyone to respect each individual’s choice whether or not to wear a mask.
Masks must be worn on Fraser Public School buses. The CDC requires masks to be worn on school buses.
At-Home Health Screening
Health, Safety, and Covid-19 Communication
We hope our Edison families are staying healthy. Fraser Public Schools' intention is to return to a normal school environment and routine for the 2021-2022 school year. Find the latest district communications regarding COVID-19 HERE.
Procedure when a student or staff member tests positive for COVID-19
When a student or staff member tests positive for COVID-19, he/she should notify the Macomb County Health Department at (586) 463-3750 during normal business hours. Additionally, families and staff members should contact the school administrator. The individual should stay home and isolate for at least 10 days from the first date of symptoms or 10 days from the test date if asymptomatic AND fever-free for 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medications and improved symptoms.
Fraser Public Schools will be reporting all COVID-19 positive cases to the Macomb County Health Department (MCHD). The MCHD will investigate to determine if any additional students or staff should be quarantined. We will continue to work with our Health Department to support these efforts.
Does Your Child Have Medical Needs?
Please find medication forms linked below for your convenience.
Parking Lot Safety
For the safety of all students, we ask parents picking up and dropping off to follow our parking lot traffic patterns. We also urge parents to park in designated parking spots and not block handicap spots. We encourage adults to walk students through the parking lot. It is also important that families are not parking or dropping off students in the bus lane. Your patience and assistance will go a long way in keeping our students safe.
Also, pursuant to state law and board policy, please do not use tobacco products on school premises. This includes the school parking lot.
Your assistance in keeping students safe is greatly appreciated!
