Transportation & Uniforms

Uniforms

Students are expected to dress in a way that reflects school spirit, high personal standards, and supports a positive learning environment. Clothing must fit properly and may not be torn, revealing, overly tight, or excessively baggy. Skirts, shorts, skorts, dresses, and jumpers must be no shorter than three finger widths above the knee. Shorts and pants may not be cargo style; pants must be ankle length and worn at the natural waistline. Shoes must be closed toe and closed heel, and athletic shoes are required on PE days. Extreme hairstyles or makeup are not permitted. Coats, hats, and gloves may only be worn outside. All sweaters, sweatshirts, and fleece worn on campus must display the school logo.

Students must be in uniform for all school functions. The Principal and Assistant Principals have final discretion regarding dress code decisions, and families are expected to comply with those decisions.

FAST uses Lands’ End as the official uniform provider to ensure consistent quality and appearance throughout the school year. Students must have at least one cobalt blue Lands’ End polo with the official embroidered school logo. Non–Lands’ End polos, even if embroidered with the school logo, are not considered in uniform. Approved items on the FAST Lands’ End uniform page and FAST PTO spirit wear may be worn daily unless otherwise specified. The cobalt blue Lands’ End polo is required for picture day, field trips, assemblies, special visitors, and other designated events.

Families experiencing financial hardship related to uniform purchases may contact Principal Mary Miller regarding possible assistance.

Transportation

We have two bus stops coordinated by FCS. Due to high demand for transportation, we will have a lottery for seats on the bus for the 2026-27 school year. If you completed the request to be on the bus, you will receive an email informing you whether you were awarded a seat or are on the waitlist. If you did not complete the request prior to the lottery, please contact us directly to check availability or be added to the waitlist.

Carpool

Most families carpool. All students are issued a carpool tag with their carpool number. Parents should display the carpool tag in their front windshield upon arrival for pick-up and keep it displayed until their student is safely in the car.

For the safety of students and staff, all parents are asked to follow the posted carpool rules.

Families picking up 4 or more students are eligible for a FAST Pass. Cars with this pass may pull into the bus/shuttle area after the Fulton County bus has departed, allowing for faster student dismissal.

Please note: The FAST Pass may only be used on days you are picking up 4 or more students.
