Welcome to 7th Grade!

Dear Parents and Guardians of 7th-Grade Students,
Welcome to a new school year! We are excited to get to know your students and to begin a new year of learning. Seventh grade brings with it a wealth of changes: students have classes predominately in the main building, and they are now eligible for sports and other extra-curricular activities. Seventh-graders are also allowed to attend school dances. For this and other reasons, this year promises to be filled with fun and excitement!
By now your student has received a planner. Please check this planner frequently, as your student will be writing his/her assignments in it. This is a great way for you to stay tuned-in to what we’re working on. Additionally, you can log on to the Parent Portal (click on the Parent Resources tab at www.re-2.org) to view all of your student’s assignments. If you haven’t already, please obtain a user name and password from the FMS office.
