URGENT:  We Need Your Help!

Photo of the Free And Reduced Meals ApplicationPlease complete a HCPS Free & Reduced Meals application. Even though meals are currently free to all students, these applications determine our funding for next school year.  These funds are used to decrease class sizes, provide tutoring, and valuable classroom resources.  Even if you do not anticipate being eligible for these meals, please complete the application this week.  If you need help completing it, call or stop by the front office.

You may fill out your application online at http://www.lunchapplication.com. Paper applications are available at the front office by request.  Only one application is needed per family. THANK YOU for your support!

Virtual Career Day

Calling all Fletcher Elementary families and friends!  We would like to host our first ever Virtual Career Day. We want our kids to learn about as many different careers as possible and begin dreaming about what they want to be when they grow up.

Parents and family friends, you can greatly help by recording a short video, no more than 5 minutes long, telling us about your job.  The more people who participate, the better.  Just use this link to record or upload your video.
