Vision Statement
At Feaster Charter School, students are at the center of all decision making.
We prepare our students to become 21st century learners in a multicultural society by
infusing Visual & Performing Arts as well as Science, Technology, Social Studies,
Engineering & Mathematics into our daily curriculum and literacy instruction.
This integration challenges our students to communicate and think critically,
creatively and collaboratively. By introducing the Arts and Sciences we are fostering
leadership and reasoning skills, as well as increasing self-esteem at a young age to
make a life changing impact. The students who leave Feaster Charter School will be
lifelong learners who are on their way to being college and career ready.

Feaster Charter School functions under three overarching rules:
- Be Safe
- Be Responsible
- Be Respectful
Our concern is for the safe and orderly dismissal of our students. If as many as 400 to
500 parents arrive at our school at approximately the same time to pick up students,
your cooperation and patience are essential to our plan.
Parking will be very limited, so be prepared to park away from the school and under the
direction of first responders. DO NOT DOUBLE PARK as it may interfere with getting
emergency vehicles into our school site.
For the safety of your child, before allowing you to take him/her home, we must document
to whom each child is released. When you arrive at school, you will be directed to our
“Request Gate/Check in area.” A runner will be sent to the student supervision area, and
escort your child to the “Release Gate,” where you can reunite with your child. In extreme
circumstances, a student reunification area may be set up off-campus, and generally in
collaboration with emergency responders.
You will be required to sign for the release of your child. This is extremely important as it
is our only means of ensuring that all students are accounted for at all times. Be prepared
to present a picture identification card if requested. Please do not just take your child from
the center without signing for their release. We recognize that you may be worried and
want to be reunited with your child as quickly as possible. However, this system has been
established to ensure your child’s safety.
It is imperative that you keep all information on your child’s Emergency Card up-to-date.
Your child will only be released to those listed on the card. These procedures should be
shared with everyone you list on the Emergency Card so they are familiar with our
procedures.
Thank you for your cooperation.
