BACK TO SCHOOL REGISTRATION PORTAL!
The Back To School Registration Portal will open soon! Expect to receive an email in the next week from the district office including information on how/when to register. All students returning for the 2023-2024 school year must complete the registration. You will need your student’s ID number which is accessible through Parent Portal. The password is the student’s birthday in the MM/DD/YYYY format.
If your student is not returning to Fort Mill Schools for the 2023-2024 school year, please contact Kelly Kern at kernk@fortmillschools.org or (803)548-8170 to request a withdrawal form.
Student Medication
Just as a reminder, student’s medications need to be picked up prior to end of the school year. Medication must be picked up by a parent/guardian. I cannot release medication to a student. Please plan to have the medication picked up by May 25th. All left over medication will be disposed of by the end of the day per Fort Mill School District policy. No medications are allowed to be kept in the health clinic during the summer break. If you have any questions, please reach out to Nurse Sarah at ryans@fortmillschools.org or (803)548-8170.
