FPS students and families are invited participate in research surveys or interviews for studies run by FHS AP Research students.

Since 2019, FHS has participated in the AP Capstone program. In AP Research, the final course in the Capstone program, students design and carry out a year-long investigation in a discipline of their choice. FHS's current AP Research cohort would appreciate the FPS community's assistance finding potential survey and interview subjects for their research.  Please see the students' project details here to see if you or someone you know might qualify for one of their studies. All of their projects have been approved by the FPS Internal Review Board for ethical compliance.

FHS Drama Company presents GREASE!

Order Tickets now at www.cur8.com. 

Written by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey

Produced through special arrangements with Concord Theatricals

Directed and Produced by Chris Brindley

Music Direction by Ethan Lobenstine

Choreography by Chloe Kounadis

Here is Rydell High's senior class of 1959: duck-tailed, hot-rodding "Burger Palace Boys" and their gum-snapping, hip-shaking "Pink Ladies" in bobby sox and pedal pushers, evoking the look and sound of the 1950s in this rollicking musical. Head "greaser" Danny Zuko and new (good) girl Sandy Dumbrowski try to relive the high romance of their "Summer Nights" as the rest of the gang sings and dances its way through such songs as "Greased Lightnin'", "It's Raining on Prom Night", "Alone at the Drive-In Movie" recalling the music of Buddy Holly, Little Richard and Elvis Presley that became the soundtrack of a generation.

We are always looking for volunteers!!

The Booster Room is open after school for students to purchase snacks, freshly baked chocolate chip cookies, drinks, and merch (cash, only). We rely on parent volunteers in order for the Booster Room to be open. Proceeds from the booster room go toward our many initiatives to provide resources for teachers and students as listed below. Please sign up for a time slot if you are available during the hours of 1 - 2:45 PM. No experience necessary! Slots available through November.

The holiday season, although often a time of joy and togetherness, can also be a difficult period for many people. Reaching out for support can make a big difference. I would like to take this opportunity to remind members of the FHS community that there is professional support staff within the building, and in the greater Framingham community, if students and family members are struggling. Click the image for the names and contact information for the social work staff within the respective Houses as well as some community resource contact information.

You are just about halfway through senior year! While exciting, students should be thinking about + planning very seriously about what they want to do after high school. For students interested in college, we are in the thick of application deadlines and getting materials together and submitted to schools. Please review this Smore with more detailed information from School Counseling.

Do not block driveways or fire hydrants.

All cars dropping students off will pull down the middle lane in two rows up to the crosswalk. Once the row is at capacity, students will exit their cars. All cars will exit and the new row of cars will follow. This will mean not all students will be dropped off at the crosswalk. All students should utilize the crosswalk in the parking lot.

In order to keep things moving, it is imperative that drivers drop their students off wherever they fall in line and not wait until the crosswalk. Additionally, students should be ready to immediately get out of their vehicle. If you or your student need additional time or assistance getting out of the car, alternative arrangements can be made. Please reach out to your house VP to do so.

For dismissal, cars may access the first row as has traditionally been done. As cars arrive on campus, please pull up as far as you can so that as many cars as possible may fit into the row. Additionally, there should be two rows of cars in that lane.

Upon entering the classroom, students will place phones in caddies or away in bags. Phones will not be visible or on their person. Same applies to airpods/earbuds.

• During instructional time, phones are away and silent including trips during class-time to the bathroom. (Consistent with MCAS/AP Protocols)

• No charging, not on desk, in pant pockets, on desk seat, on top of backpack, etc.

Students can continue use in hallways, cafeteria, or during privileges this year.

Parents have a role to play in helping us enforce this policy. Please refrain from texting or calling your teens during school hours. If there is a family emergency, then revert back to what we all did while growing up: call the school directly 1-508-620-4963.

Cell Phones have become ubiquitous in recent years and schools have struggled to adequately come to terms with their use, but it is increasingly clear that cell phones have a detrimental effect not only on student performance, but also on school culture.

• Schools that have banned cell phone-use have seen an increase in student performance and a decrease in incidents of bullying, violence, and other disciplinary infractions. 

• Cell phone use is associated with teen loneliness and isolation.
  

• Cell phone use leads to multi-tasking, which can decrease student performance.

FHS will be utilizing a digital hall pass system this year called Securly Pass (Formerly named E-Hall Pass). Please see the document linked below for instructions on how to request a pass. You will need your school ID to expedite the process. We will not be using paper passes and Campus Safety Monitors will have the E-Hall pass app to check on permission for students in the hallways.

Instructions for downloading the In Case of Crisis app and the Student Check-In Playbook for Framingham. This app was referenced in the student lessons this week and may be used for students to check-in as safe if an evacuation from FHS becomes necessary.
