Dismissal Changes: If you need to make an end of day change, please notify your child's teacher as soon as possible. Changes through the office will need to be received no later than 2:00 pm. This is for the safety of all students. Thank you for understanding.

Early Dismissal: Anyone picking up a student from the office will need to bring a photo ID.

Appointments: If your student has to miss school for an appointment, please provide a Dr.'s note to the office as soon as possible so we can update their attendance records. Your student can bring the note to school, or you can email it to mthompson@flcs.k12.in.us.

Thank you for your cooperation in helping us keep all students safe while making the car rider line run as smoothly as possible.

We understand that busy schedules and the rush of mornings can sometimes lead to students forgetting essential items at home. To ensure a smooth process for delivering these forgotten items, we have established a new procedure for dropping off items at the school office.  

Here is how to proceed:

While we understand the need to drop off forgotten items on occasion, we encourage students to develop responsibility and be prepared for their school day as much as possible.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in helping us maintain a safe and productive learning environment for all our students. Please feel free to contact the front office if you have any questions.

FLCS is very thankful for all our volunteers that help our students and staff.

If you are planning to or would like to volunteer (see examples below) at some time this school year, please complete the online volunteer application using this link (FLCS Volunteer Application). If you have already had your ID scanned at one of our buildings, we are asking that you also complete this application for documentation and safety purposes. Reminder, you must fill out the application and have your ID scanned once every school year.

Volunteer examples - field trip chaperone, classroom helper, athletics/coaching, library helper, cafeteria helper, tutor, office helper, fundraising, concessions, mentor, etc.

The application can also be found on our website under Human Resources.

Thank you.
