Attention parents! The high school/middle school phones aren’t working properly. We can call out but all incoming calls aren’t making it through. If you need to get ahold of us please email us at sarac@sd215.net or saram@sd215.net. We should have the system back up and working soon. We will keep you updated.

Next week is homecoming! This is an extra big week this year with volleyball districts on Tuesday and Thursday, cross country districts on Wednesday, and a district football game on Friday. The student council has put together a great schedule for the week!
Attention senior students and parents of seniors:
October 14 - Seniors will have the opportunity to attend BYUI Campus Day. Please turn in parent permission slips ASAP.
October 28 - Seniors will have the opportunity to attend Experience ISU Day. Please turn in permission slips ASAP.
Applications are required for free and reduced-price meals for 2022-2023 school year. This school year, families who need assistance paying for school meals will be required to submit an application for free and reduced-price school meals for the first time since 2020.
Our school district submitted a waiver to be able to use previous eligibility determinations dating back to school year 2019-20 for the first 30 operating days of school. The 30th operating day is October 18, so if an application has not been submitted and approved by then, prior eligibility will return to full pay on October 19.
In addition to helping with meal prices, the State and Federal government use our district’s free and reduced percentage to determine funding for many of the programs that support our students. It is extremely important that families submit applications, even if they do not intend to eat meals at the school.
Click on the following links to apply. Please contact your school or the district office for a paper application:

This Wednesday, October 5th, there will be a National Honors Society induction ceremony for invited juniors and seniors. The meeting will be at 6 PM in the high school library.

SCHOOL MENUS.
We have received a lot of requests to add the monthly lunch menus to the website. These have now been added to the top of the Child Nutrition page. From the District homepage (or from any school homepage), click on the "Child Nutrition" button below the photo gallery. The different menu options will be listed near the top of the page (see highlighted area on the image). The daily menus (and even the monthly menus) can also be accessed using the Fremont County Schools 215 app.

NEW WEBSITE!
The new website for Fremont County Joint School District #215 is live! Although the site is not completely finished and will be a work in progress for the next few months, we wanted to get it out as quickly as possible. The address is still www.sd215.net. Each of the schools can be accessed through the "Schools" menu in the upper right corner of the district home page. At the current time, the Board of Trustees and Child Nutrition links are also ready to go, and the Live Feed, News, and Events are all functional. Many of the others tabs are still under construction. You may also access information for your preferred schools and district through a new app available in the Apple and Google Play stores (search for Fremont County Schools 215). More information on the app and the new features will be coming in the next week or so. Thank you for your patience and your suggestions for improving communication. We will continue to work to make this better.
