Parent Council Is Going "Paperless"

Most Parent Council communications this year will not be coming home in the backpacks on paper. Instead, we will be posting our news on this website. Each week Fort River parents will receive email reminders of website updates and upcoming events.

If we do need to send home paper, it will come home in the backpack of the youngest Fort River child in the family.

If you do not have access to email, or if you wish to receive paper copies of the newsletter, please let the Fort River office staff know and they will arrange to have paper summaries of the blog sent home every two weeks along with Principal Sharick's letter.

Welcome to the Fort River Parent Council Website

Welcome to the new school year!

This is the official website of the Fort River Parent Council. 

Parent Council is an organization of parents and guardians who work together to make Fort River a fun, stimulating, and welcoming environment for all children and families. Every parent and guardian is automatically a member of Parent Council.

This website is the place to check for the latest information on all Parent Council events. It is updated by the Fort River Parent Council every Friday during the school year and is completely parent-run. It is not an official publication of the Amherst School District or the Town of Amherst. All content is published solely at the discretion of the Fort River Parent Council.
