Dear FSOA Parents/Guardians and Students, 

Please see important updates for this week below!

Picture Retakes/Make Up and Student IDs

Studio 5 will be here on October 11th during Peer Engagement (8am to 12pm) for students who missed picture day or need picture retakes. Attending Peer Engagement is not mandatory to participate in the pictures, but we encourage you to join us for the fun. If you need to have picture retakes, please bring the package back and Studio 5 will retake the photo and resend a photo package to you. 

This year student IDs are required for several activities including field trips. All students must have a FSOA student ID.    If your student doesn’t have an ID, please make plans to attend on October 11th between 8 - 12.
