The Foundation of "FOSTER PRIDE"
At Foster, a platform of six school-wide rules is utilized so that all students and staff understand acceptable actions and to coordinate our character education efforts. These six rules are:
Be On Time
Be Ready To Work
Be Kind To All
Be Honest
Be Fair
Be Respectful To People and Property
So that we remember that these rules are important to our every day success, we recite the following pledge each morning:
My Foster Promise
Today and everyday I will try my best. I will be on time, be ready to work, be kind to all, be honest and fair, and be respectful to people and property. This is my Foster Promise.
Parents, please make sure you familiarize yourself with the district wide Parent/Student handbook. This document includes a variety of information that is important to know and understand. If you have any questions regarding the handbook, please contact Mr. Beringer.
