Student Grades Update

This year, there is a change in where families of middle and high school students view grades during the term.

In the past, families may have noticed differences between Schoology and PowerSchool. To avoid this confusion, teachers will now post grades and assignments only in Schoology during the term. 

At the end of each term, final grades will be entered into PowerSchool for report cards.

Feed It Forward Donation Opportunity

Feed It Forward Donation Opportunity
Supporting Students at Fremont Middle School One Meal at a Time
No student should go hungry. No student should be shamed.
The Feed It Forward program provides a way for our community to support Fremont Middle School students by helping cover student meal debt ensuring every child has access to a healthy, dignified meal at school.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Make a Donation
Community members, parents, and organizations can contribute in one of two ways:
  • Add funds through the LINQ online meal payment system (just like adding to your own student’s account).
  • Drop off cash or check at the Kuna School District Office or the Fremont Middle School Office.
Please indicate that the donation is for the Feed It Forward account at Fremont Middle School.

2. Funds Are Applied to Student Meal Debt
Your donation will be used to reduce or eliminate unpaid meal balances for Fremont Middle School students in need.

3. Students Receive Meals Without Shame
When students do not have enough funds in their account, the cafeteria cashier can discreetly use the Feed It Forward account so no student is denied a meal or singled out.

4. Guidelines for Use
To ensure funds help the most students:
  • Only full meals can be purchased with Feed It Forward funds.
  • No à la carte items (extra snacks, desserts, or drinks) will be covered.
  • Second meals are not eligible, as they are charged at the adult rate.
WHY IT MATTERS
  • Combats Hunger – Every student deserves access to nutritious food.
  • Supports Our Schools – Helps manage and reduce student meal debt.
  • Builds Community – Allows individuals to make a direct, local impact.
  • Promotes Dignity – No student experiences lunch shaming or food insecurity at school.
GET INVOLVED
Your contribution directly supports students at Fremont Middle School.
Together, we can Feed It Forward one meal at a time..

HAWK Store

Our Parent Advisory Committee (PAC) has decided to hold a HAWK Store once a month for students. The store will be on Friday, September 26th, and will take place the last 15 minutes of students lunches. We will have different snacks for students to purchase that will range from $1 to $3. Monies raised in the store go to the FMS Sunshine Fund which supports staff appreciation, condolences, and celebrations.
