Achievement has been the focus this year both in the classroom and outside.  In the classroom we stress organization, creativity and work ethic.  The beginning of the third quarter marked the introduction of Operation Success.  Operation Success has been aimed at stressing to our students that failure is not an acceptable option.  When students near that mark at any check point (every three weeks), he/she must attend Operation Success after school.  At Operation Success, students are taught organizational structures and help with assignments is available.  This program has helped many students achieve to a higher level throughout the quarter.  We want each of our students to consistently strive to do their best.  Thank you to all our parents who make sacrifices to transport their student to Operation Success in order to teach these values and skills.

We encourage each of our students to use his/her agenda daily to record assignments.  Please use this tool, if you are not currently, to check the progress of your student daily.  As the weather turns, it becomes more imperative that students record assignments, set aside a study time daily and complete all assignments.  Students and parents are also encouraged to check PowerSchool every three weeks to see updated grades.  If you do not remember your parent password, you can e-mail This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Please continue to reinforce good attendance habits with your child.  Attendance plays an important role in your child’s education.  Please revisit our attendance policies which are in our Student/Parent handbook and which are outlined in an article posted to the Fassett web site.

Please continue to call with questions and concerns as we know that home / school communication is imperative as we work together to provide the best atmosphere and education for your child.  As always, I am very thankful for your support and for your positive involvement in making Fassett a great place for our students and families.

Sincerely,

Tim Holcombe

Principal
