Letter from Fayette County Schools about March 11th and 12th
Dear Parents/Guardians:
Our employees will be able to receive their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine on Thursday, March 11, with the second dose planned for Thursday, April 1. A large number of staff have registered to receive the vaccine, so teachers and school support personnel will be out of their buildings throughout the day on both dates.
Due to limited staff at the schools, all students will participate in personalized learning from home on March 11. School operational plans for April 1 will be communicated to parents as soon as the school system confirms that the second dose of the vaccine will be given on that date.
Remember that Friday, March 12 is already designated as a professional learning day for teachers, and a personalized learning day for students.Teachers will communicate assignments and expectations to students for both March 11 and March 12.
We understand that the unscheduled personalized learning day for this month may be an inconvenience for some families. However, the health and safety of our students and staff is a top priority. We believe that allowing our employees the opportunity to get vaccinated will make our schools safer and healthier for everyone.
We appreciate your understanding, and the support you have given to our schools during such a difficult and uncertain time. We are hopeful that as more people are vaccinated, COVID-19 will soon be behind us and we can look forward to brighter days ahead.
Cafe and Ice Cream are BACK!
We will sell ice cream to the assigned grade levels in the cafe ONLY. The homeroom teachers will let you know if they have set certain days of the week for ice cream. Ice cream is $1 and we ask that you please send in small bills.

Infinite Campus
The Campus Parent portal is your source for a variety of student and family records, including household and individual contact information, attendance, school-based fees, academic planning (high school), forms, and report cards. The Parent portal also provides access to the GaDOE SLDS Portal. This must be done first, as the username you create in Infinite Campus is shared with the Schoology platform. Because each login reflects the person associated with the username, we recommend that you create a separate account for each parent.
