If you are dismissing your student you must call ahead, preferably in the morning or send an email to fmsattendance@rsu5.org. We will dismiss your student out of class. They will sign out in the main office and then wait for you to pull in front of the building for pick up. You do not need to come in and sign your student out.
For absences of 3 or more consecutive days (e.g., family vacations) please complete and extended absence form and submit it one week in advance. Forms are available in the main office. you can send the form into the main office, email it to fmsattendance@rsu5.org or fax it to 865.2902. Thank you!

Powerschool~
Most of our first day of school forms are available online. It’s very helpful if the forms are completed before the school year begins. Please log in to PowerSchool and follow the instructions provided. For powerschool questions, please contact Nancy in the main office at dohertyn@rsu5.org or 865.6051
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Students~
Students check your emails during BCS!
The office or your parents may send you alerts for changes in plans.
The school day ends at 2:20. Make sure to have a "backup" plan (especially if clubs/practices/games are cancelled). All kids need to know if they are walking home, getting picked up, or riding a bus (FMS does not need to know the plan). They can have different plans on different days without letting us know, just make sure your child knows.
