Way to go, 2nd grade!
Our class is doing an amazing job raising money for this special cause. I am so proud of my 2nd graders :) I love hearing about all of the creative ways our students are raising money. I have seen...
- Car washes
- Lemonade and cookie stands
- Visiting Mom and Dad's work
and so much more!
Reminder - FSA Connect Questionnaire
As part of our efforts to provide easy access for our faculty to essential, accurate and updated student information, we have created an important Student & Parent Information Questionnaire under FSAConnect.
We ask that all parents fill out the questionnaire for each of their children as follows:
- Login to your child's FSAConnect account
- Click on "Site pages" on the left side of the screen under Dashboard
- Click on Students & Parent Information Questionnaire
- Click on "Answer the questions…" and fill out the answers.
- If you have another child, please log out and log back in with the credentials of the other child and fill out the form for that child. Do the same if you have more children at Fulton Science Academy.

Any student who visits one (or both) of these events will receive 10 extra bonus points on one of their science tests for each visit.

Home Visit Program
Home visits are a special program offered by FSAPS to help build the parent, student, and teacher relationship. This is an opportunity for your child's teachers to visit and get a closer look at their life at home. This helps a teacher to know more about each of his/her students, and build a strong relationship between school and family. These are optional, but if you would be interested in planning a home visit for your child, please see the information below.
How Can You Schedule a Home Visit?
This process is very simple. Please send an e-mail to our home visit coordinator, Mrs. Unal, at junal@fultonscienceacademy.org. In that email, please provide three available dates for your child's home visit. We will get back to you to confirm a date. At least two teachers will be together for home visits; specific names/subjects will be dependent upon teacher availability.
For any questions you have about this program, please send an e-mail to junal@fultonscienceacademy.org.
Please note: the best times to schedule a home visit are weekdays after 5:00pm, and during the weekends, except Sunday mornings.
