The Board of Education has approved the moving of the high school's graduation dates up one week. Here is the information:
New Date: Sunday, May 23, 2010
Time of ceremony: 1 p.m.
Location: Free State Athletic Stadium
Rain Location: TBA
Old Website
You can still access the old Free State Website here. Information on that site is no longer maintained, and will be shutdown in the near future.
Grade Access
Yes, now students’ grades can be accessed online! Once a parent or guardian turns in a verification form they will receive their username and password via email.
On days your child is ill or is not going to be at school, please call the Attendance Office so we can keep the attendance record accurate. The phone number is 785-330-2503 or send an email to vlindber@usd497.org.
Appointment/Early Pickup:
When your child has an appointment, we ask that you call in no later than two (2) hours before the appointment whenever possible. The same applies to parents needing to pick up their child early from school.
Student Passes:
Students who have an appointment scheduled during the school day need to come to pick up their off-campus pass from the Attendance Office between classes whenever possible. This limits classroom interruptions while ensuring students get their pass to leave on time.
