Please Join Us FCMS Families,

Our School Advisory Council (SAC) needs family and community members!

Please contact Tee’ha Carroll [email protected]
if you want to join us.

What is SAC?

  • A council of parents, school faculty and staff, and other community and business members who meet to address the needs of the school, as related to the school improvement plan.
  • A council of stakeholders who vote on expenditures to support the school improvement plan, such as items for PBIS and new computers that were approved and purchased last year.
  • FCMS SAC meets once a month, on the second Tuesday of each month at 2:30pm.

What are the duties of the teacher, parent, business, and community representatives?

  • Members act as a resource for SAC in the areas of community related issues that affect the school and its students.
  • Members serve as a communications link between SAC, business, community, and parent groups.

ATTENDANCE

If a student is unable to attend school, upon returning, the parent/guardian must complete an online attendance form, BELOW, or submit a note within 48 hours stating the date of the absence, the specific reason for the absence, and  have the parent/guardian’s signature. Emails and phone calls are not accepted as notification of absence.

Reporting Bullying

St. Johns County School District believes that all students and employees be afforded a setting that is safe, secure, and free from bullying and harassment of any kind. In compliance with Florida Statute 1006.147 and School Board Rule 3.21, the school district has adopted a comprehensive policy prohibiting bullying and harassment.
