Mr. Ward’s Message:
THANK YOU to all the families as our new revamped Safety Protocols have been tried and held true over the past few days. Again, let’s be clear NO ONE gained access to Freetown Elementary School. However, in light of the recent events around the district it has caused all administrators and staff to reflect upon our current safety protocols.
As you know when you arrive at FES be prepared to share your name, your child’s name, and your reason for your visit. You will then need to show your ID to the office.
The new office window has been utilized over the past several school days. Additionally, when parents/guardians/caregivers come to the school you will only gain access to the vestibule in the main lobby. The second set of doors are ALL locked.
As always, THANK YOU for your continued support and patience with this work. We will remain hyper vigilant and remain firm and consistent with our updated protocols.
