Fayetteville Public Schools Student Discipline Policy 5.17
To Our Parents & Guardians:
Please find the Fayetteville Public Schools Student Discipline Policy 5.17 linked to this message or go to https://goo.gl/ELt3fR. This Policy was also sent to you in an email from the district. Arkansas law and Arkansas Department of Education regulations require that all parents and guardians receive a copy of this policy. We ask that you acknowledge receiving it by signing the Receipt of Policy form that will be coming home with your child.
Please review the policy, sign the form and have your child also sign the form, and return it to your child’s school by October 11, 2017. The Receipt of Policy form has been sent home in your student's Monday Folder. For your convenience, a copy of the Receipt of Policy form is linked to this message.
Thank you for your assistance.

McNair Outreach Drive
Did you know . . . one out of every four McNair students qualifies for free and reduced meals? The mission of the McNair Outreach program is to serve these students by providing basic necessities such as food, clothing, hygiene items and school supplies.
Please join us in our mission by donating to the 2017-2018 McNair Outreach Drive. This year's drive will run from Monday, October 2nd through Friday, October 13th. Checks can be made to McNair PTO (memo section denoting Outreach) and all contributions are tax deductible. With the support of the amazing McNair community, we are hopeful we can reach our goal of $5,000. Thanks so much for all you do to ensure ALL McNair students are set up for success. We look forward to updating you on our progress!

Student-Involved Conferences
Fall Parent-Teacher Conference time has arrived. We look forward to visiting with all of our McNair families and students. We have so much to share with all of you and we want to make sure we address any questions or concerns that you might have at this point in the year. McNair is holding conferences on Wednesday, October 18th and Thursday, October 26th from 3:00-6:00 pm. If your family is unable to attend during these two days, please let your student's homeroom teacher know the best date/time you can meet.
McNair’s goal is to meet with 100% of our families. We look forward to sharing your child’s progress. During the student-involved conferences, families will have the opportunity to meet with homeroom teachers and then interact with your student as he/she shares their digital portfolio of current goals, artifacts from each course, and a reflection of their learning/progress. Conferences are a necessary and important component of the family-school partnership toward your child’s educational success. Students will bring home a confirmation sheet with your family's date and time for your student's conference in his/her Monday folder.
Thank you,
