Checking Students Out

Any parent/guardian who comes to school to check a student out between 8:15 and 2:45 any day should simply park in the bus loop before coming in to get their student.  Please DO NOT park in the handicap spaces in front of the school unless you have a handicap parking permit.  Parking in a handicap spot without a permit is an automatic $250.00 fine and we don't want anyone to be cited.  Thank you for your cooperation!



Parent Portal and Homework Help

If you aren't receiving live updates on Campus Parent Portal to see your child's grades and attendance, please download the app and log in with your username and password. If you need assistance, please email samantha.davidson@simpson.kyschools.us. This app will show you information on every child in your household in Simpson County.

If you and your child do not understand your child's grade, please contact the teacher. Most teachers are first.last@simpson.kyschools.us, but you can also find those emails in the Campus Parent Portal app.

We have homework help each day before school starting at 7:30 and after school Monday - Thursday from 3:15-4:15. Bus transportation can be provided on Tue/Thur if you email leah.wood@simpson.kyschools.us the day before.


Outside Food and Drinks: 

A reminder to our families that while it is perfectly fine for students to bring their lunch to school from home;  federal guidelines prohibit commercial food and drinks (McDonalds, Sonic, Subway, Pizza Hut, Frosty Freeze,  etc...) from being brought into the school. We cannot accept deliveries (via parent/ guardian or from a delivery service) of commercial food or drinks for students and any orders that do come in must be sent back with the person who is making the delivery.


Student Drop off & Pick up: 

Students who arrive or depart school as "car riders" should be dropped off and picked up at school via our car rider line on the "library side" of the building. Please do not drop your students off in the student parking lots or any other location other than this designated area. Only student vehicles should be in the student parking lots during the school day, including arrival and dismissal. 

We appreciate your cooperation with this as it helps us make our campus more secure and safe for our students.  


Transportation Changes or Alternative Pick-Up Person:

 Parents and Guardians: All transportation changes or changes in person picking your student(s) up from school must be in writing. All bus notes need to be delivered to the front lobby office before 2:00 pm, and the note must contain the address where your student should be delivered.  We are not permitted to take transportation changes or alternate persons picking your student up from school over the phone. All people picking up students must have and show a valid ID before we can release them.  Thank you for your help with this!

Driver's Permit

Are you ready to get your Driver's Permit?  Don't forget - the Commonwealth of Kentucky requires a "School Compliance Letter" that verifies the student is academically eligible to take their permit test.  Parents must come by the school and see Mrs. Brown or Mrs. Davidson to obtain this letter.

Spring SMILE Club

 T-Shirt Sale

As many of you all know, our FSHS SMILE club helps support students who are in need of a SMILE for various reasons. Our primary goal is to help provide emotional support and promote mental health awareness throughout our school, district, and community. We recently celebrated Random Acts of Kindness week, and we are gearing up to finish out the school year strong with SMILE week in April. 


In order to support our efforts and to continue helping students in need, we need YOUR help! We are selling SPRING tees and crewneck sweatshirts until March 21st. All orders will be delivered to FSHS and can be picked up there. We will communicate an anticipated pick up date once the order is closed.


We would love for you to buy one and support students in need of a little SMILE. 


Thank you for your support!
