Check-in: Students must sign in through the attendance office when they arrive at school after 8:40am.

Check-out: If it is necessary for a student to check-out early, student drivers are responsible for submitting a note to the office before school starts or the parent is required to either personally check out the student (ID REQUIRED), or email fchattendance@forsyth.k12.ga.us to confirm the check out.
