Frenship ISD wishes to thank the parents who participated in the School Messenger survey on Thursday, February 23 regarding campus start times at our elementary and middle school campuses for 2017-18.
Currently, the elementary campuses begin at 7:45 a.m. middle school campuses begin 8:15 a.m.
Option 1 of the survey showed the campus times the same as they are this year. Option 2 flipped the times and showed where middle school campuses would begin the school day first.
There were 2,540 people who participated in the survey, and the results show that 1,807 votes (71.1%) were cast in support of Option 1. Option 2 received 733 votes (28.9%).
Based on the survey results received, FISD will use the start times and end times below in 2017-18.
Elementary Campuses: 7:45 a.m. – 3:15 p.m.
Middle School Campuses: 8:15 a.m. – 3:45 p.m.
Please note that FISD is extending the end of the elementary and middle school daily schedules in 2017-18 by 10 minutes. This decision was made to help fulfill the requirements of House Bill (HB) 2610, passed by the 84th Texas Legislature, which requires districts to provide at least 75,600 minutes of instruction during a school year.
Below is a link to the FISD 2017-18 calendar approved by the Board of Trustees on February 20.
