IMPORTANT- Online Maze Information

Thank you to all families who have already successfully completed all Maze forms! Please make sure you have logged into your Infinite Campus parent portal and completed all documents in the online registration section under the "more" tab. Please have forms completed by August 7th.

MAZE is Fremont Unified School District’s annual registration confirmation process in which parents/guardians:

• provide required information for each enrolled student - such as emergency contacts,
• acknowledge certain parent/guardian and student rights and responsibilities, and
• access specific school forms/information.

Completing the MAZE process ensures your student’s school has accurate information, and allows families to view student schedules/classroom assignments and their teachers when that information is released in August.

MAZE forms for all FUSD students must be completed online through the Infinite Campus (IC) Parent Portal. The window to complete the MAZE process for the 2023-24 school year is July 17 to August 7, 2023.

Please do not complete the New Student Registration as it will duplicate your student(s).

Parents/Guardians should have received a notice MAZE information at the email address indicated in the IC Parent Portal.

Before and After School Day Care

We are excited to continue our partnership with the YMCA, for before and after school care at Forest Park Elementary School. For more information, please visit FP YMCA  to learn about the organization and curriculum. 

Attendance on the FIRST Day of School

All students are expected to report to school on the FIRST day, Wednesday, August 16. Students who do not attend the FIRST day of school will be dropped at the end of the FIRST day of school. Students who are dropped will not be guaranteed a seat at the school and may have to be overloaded to other schools upon return. The only exceptions will be students who are absent due to illness. If a student is absent the FIRST day due to illness, parents or guardians must notify the school every day the student is absent. Seats will not be held for students on extended vacations or other optional activities, whether or not the school is notified.
