Welcome to Fleetwood Elementary!


Mr. Michael Profico
Principal

Fleetwood School is home to 359 students in Grades K-4, and 65 staff members each school day. Our students are encouraged to become actively involved in all aspects of their school. The third and fourth-grade Friday Friends work every Friday to read and participate in other activities with their kindergarten friends. Fourth-grade students also serve as "bus buddies" by assisting kindergarten students in getting safely to their buses. Our third and fourth grade Student Council members help resolve issues, plan monthly Spirit Days and serve as ambassadors during Grandparents Day and other family visitation days.

Parent Involvement at Fleetwood is provided through a dedicated and hard-working Parent Teacher Organization (PTO). Fleetwood School's Physical Education Program has been hailed by the National Association for Sports and Physical Education as a Stars School.

Top of PagePowerSchool Improvements Require Account Creation
PowerSchool is changing for the better! As of May 3, we have moved to a single sign-on system. That means that with a single user name and password that you create, you will be able to see all of your children in the same screen, and will no longer have to move between accounts.  All PowerSchool users will see a new screen when visiting our log-in site  as of May 3. This is the screen you will see:

1. Click the "Create Account" button
2. Enter your information
3. Enter the access ID and password for each student you wish to link
    (Make sure the password is typed IN ALL CAPS!)
4. Click "enter"
5. Log into PowerSchool with your new user ID and password
6. All students are now available with a single login.

NOTE: Your email address and user ID must be unique.  If you have previously logged into PowerSchool, you do not need to create an account. You only need to enter IDs and passwords for additional students you wish to link to your original account.
 

From that point on, you will only have to remember the unique user name and password you created for your account to see the entire family.

This change will allow us to enable the mobile PowerSchool app for your use. It will also record your e-mail address so that we may contact you via e-mail as well as telephone in the event of an emergency. If you need more help, here's a
quick video that will guide you through the process step-by-step.
Top of PageGAP Nomination Period Open Now
The nomination period for Mount Laurel's Gifted Academic Program (GAP) is now open. Parents who believe their child may be a candidate for the program should complete the nomination form found here. All forms must be completed and returned to your child's school by May 31, 2012.

Parents Please Note: Students who are currently in the GAP program must only be re-nominated by their parents in second grade. At all other grade levels, enrollment in the GAP Program will continue from year to year. If your child is not in GAP, but you believe he or she may be a candidate for the program, you can complete a nomination form at any grade level during the annual nomination period.
Top of PageMonte and Laurel's Adventures
 

We're Monte and Laurel - Mount Laurel's Kids. Last summer, we asked Mount Laurel families to take us along on their summer vacations, and they took us at our word. We went to places far and near, saw new sites and learned about exotic and wonderful places. What fun we had! It's all in our Summer Adventures Gallery ... take a look!

Throughout this school year, we've asked families to take us with them as they travel or even as they just enjoy time at home together. We love to share these unique moments within the community. Take a look at our School Year Gallery to see what we've been up to.

Recently, our originator, Superintendent of Schools Dr. Antoinette Rath, asked us to go to work! She sent us to a number of area businesses within Mount Laurel and asked employers to show us around so we could learn about what various businesses do here each day.  We've been posing with some of our new "co-workers", meeting visiting colleagues and tagging along on business trips. If you'd like to take us to work with you, no matter where you work, we're ready to go! We'll share your photos in our newest album, our At Work Gallery. Our goal is to show our Mount Laurel School Friends the many places one can travel in the corporate world, and the wonderful people they will meet along the way!

Top of PageFleetwood School Receives Exxon Educational Grant

 

Centerton Road Exxon On The Run Manager Bob Connolly presents a
check to Principal Michael Profico representing this year's grant. Exxon
employees Vicky Hillman and Felicia Ulrich participated in the presentation.

Fleetwood School was the recipient of a generous community contribution on December 6. For the sixth consecutive year, Fleetwood School became the recipient of Exxon Mobil's Educational Alliance Math and Science Grant. This $500 grant is used to support student success in Mathematics and Science.

In presenting the grant at Fleetwood's Winter Concert, Exxon on the Run Service Station Manager Bob Connolly said he was pleased to continue the community partnership that has developed between his station and the school. Accompanying Connolly were Vicky Hillman and Felicia Ulrich, employees of the Centerton Road station.

ExxonMobil's Educational Alliance Program has helped ExxonMobil Corporation to contribute $2 million to schools in 45 states and the District of Columbia since its inception. Research has shown that programs like Educational Alliance are making a difference in U.S. schools. The $500 Educational Alliance Grant is designed to be flexible and is left to the discretion of the school officials.

Fleetwood Principal Michael Profico praised the program and said the annual grant has allowed the school to purchase items in support of math and science learning. "Through the Exxon grant, we have purchased calculators for student use, interactive voting devices that allow students to engage in classroom assessment and other supplies. This funding has been a tremendous help to our students and to our staff."
