Faculty Focus

FHS Faculty Senate Updates

The snow has melted, the flowers are blooming, and there are only 2 weeks left in term 3! If you haven’t yet seen the Progress Reports in Aspen/X2, they were published on March 7th. You can also see details of grades and missing assignments in Canvas. If you haven’t used Canvas to observe your student’s grades before, you can follow this helpful guide. Did you know you can also check daily and class attendance and tardies in Aspen/X2?  Use this guide (Spanish & Portuguese) to show you how!


Term 3 is a particularly important time for Juniors & Seniors. If your student is part of the class of 2025 or 2026, now is the time to begin serious conversations about your student’s plans for after graduation. Whether you’re looking at planning college visits, finding summer work that aligns with their career goals, or just providing a prompt to get those gears moving, your input during this time can be essential for your student’s success. You can also remind your student to use the planning tools available in SchooLinks.


Quarter 3 ends on April 4, so if you want to know more about your student’s courses and how they can do well, please reach out to teachers at your earliest convenience. We honestly look forward to hearing from you

MA Attorney General Releases Guide for Immigrant Students’ Right to Attend School

The Massachusetts Attorney General recently released a new Flyer on the Rights of Immigrant Students to Attend School for Parents & Families, in English, Spanish, Portuguese, Haitian Creole, Vietnamese, and Mandarin (all linked at the bottom of this email).

This Flyer accompanies the previously issued Guidance for K-12 Schools on Protecting Students and their Information and Flyer for K-12 Schools on Protecting Students and Their Information. This flyer was created in response to requests for a flyer specifically tailored for families and translated into multiple languages.

All of these documents are also available on the AG webpage: Resources for Immigrants in Massachusetts.



FHS Student & Community Supports

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.

Arrival and Dismissal

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.



Cell Phone Policy (Building-Wide Focus for 2024-25)

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.



E-Hall Pass

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.
