Welcome to Fort Howard Elementary
At Fort Howard Elementary School, we value family engagement that includes families in their child's education. This is done through APFTT sessions (Academic Parent/Family Teacher Teams). This allows one-on-one conferences and sessions that support families in identified grade levels with learning sessions that provide support to the families with curriculum and activities that can be completed at home. Fort Howard Elementary School is a schoolwide Title 1. Our staff believes in meeting individual academic and social emotional student needs. We spend time teaching self-regulation, learning how the Event + Their Response = The Outcome.
