SmartBoot System
SmartBoot System
Over the past year I have been working with the Lockout Company to help us enhance school security and safety for our students and staff. The SmartBoot System is now installed in both the elementary and high school buildings. The system was financed by a grant from the Michigan State Police.

The SmartBoot System will not become fully operational until staff receive more training and students have a solid understanding of operational procedures to follow if the SmartBoot System is activated. We will have more information coming out to you soon. Once again today was just an introductory for staff and students to see and hear how the system works.

In working with the Lockout Company, our goal is to have the system fully operational by October 1, 2019. Once again more information will be shared with all families in the near future.

Nut Free District
Nut Free District
In order to protect our students with life-threatening allergies, FEAS has instituted a nut-resistant policy. Please refrain from bringing food products containing peanuts, tree nuts or tree oils in lunches or as snacks. If a product has been manufactured in a facility that handles nuts, but the product itself does not contain nuts, that product is acceptable to bring. Thank you for your help in providing a safe environment for our students.
