The Florence-Carlton parents, school and community will provide a safe, respectful environment that strives to prepare all students to become responsible, lifelong learners by
empowering them with the integrity, knowledge and skills to contribute to a changing world.
Keeping it Safe
Dear Parents and Community Members,
Recently the topic of safety around the schools was brought up. For the most
part schools are one of the safest places in most towns. There are lots of
adults looking after students, making sure they are doing the right thing. One
of the things that most schools do is bring in drug dogs to check for drugs or
other contraband. We recently did just that at the high school. The dogs are
trained to hit on illegal drugs, prescription drugs, over the counter medication,
alcohol, tobacco including vapor cigarettes that contain nicotine, gun powder
and explosives. During this search we did have several “hits”. Most of the
time it was for over the counter medication but we did find some illegal drugs
and an almost empty beer bottle. Please have a conversation with your chil-
dren about the dangers of illegal drug use, underage drinking and tobacco use.
If you have a student that drives check their vehicle occasionally, check your
child’s backpack too. Our goal is not to punish students but to educate them
on the effects of the choices they make. We will be increasing the number of
drug dog inspections for the rest of the year too! Hopefully together we can
educate our children to make healthy choices!
Another concern is cell phone usage while driving both by students and
adults. Many times I have seen students texting while driving almost as soon
as they pull out of the parking lot. Distracted driving is an accident waiting to
happen! One parent suggested that everyone stop using their cell phones
when driving near the school. When driving by the school in the morning or
afternoon it is extremely important that we all focus on the task at hand
“driving safely and watching out for pedestrians and other vehicles”. The
speed limit is 15 MPH on Long Avenue and is 15 MPH on Old Hwy 93 start-
ing on the south at Westgate Way all the way to Edens Lane and Ropers Way
on the north.
Be Safe and enjoy the spring weather!
If you have a question or concern regarding your child’s education or safety
please send me an email, [email protected], or call me at 273-6751.

FLORENCE— In the spring of 2012, the Florence Drama Program built a
house to put on a quaint production of ‘The Wizard of Oz.’ Throughout the
next three years, the house has been used time and time again, and now it’s
practically in shambles. But now, coming up in May, that small house will
be replaced with an entire city.
On May 13th-15th, the Florentine Players will be performing the most fa-
mous tragedy of all time: ‘Romeo and Juliet’ by William Shakespeare. Alt-
hough this play is typically portrayed as the most epic romance of all time,
Drama is here to break that stigma. The focus of the production is the ridic-
ulousness of the feud and how destructive pride can be. The directors also
hope to shed a light upon the fact and Romeo and Juliet were not truly in
love but merely infatuated with one another (just ask Friar Laurence). An-
other twist Florence is bringing to this legendary production is the setting.
Commonly known to take place in 16th century Verona, Director Derk
Schmidt decided to move the action to modern-day Detroit. Why? Possibly
because he is from Michigan, possibly because of a classic rock song, pos-
sibly because of his affinity toward Coney Island hot dogs, but you’ll have
show up to find out.
Although this is all the information the Chronicle can disclose at this time,
there are a few more details that the public needs to know. First and fore-
most, anyone who is able to attend the production must do so. If you don’t
consider yourself able due to a previous engagement, change your plans.
This take on ‘Romeo and Juliet’ is like none Florence, nay, the world, has
ever seen. One would be a fool to willingly miss the greatness scheduled to
unfold.
Many people in the Florence school and community don’t realize how
much work goes into the spring production. For the first three months of
the school year, Drama focuses on its integral fundraiser: the Annual Pie
Social. Directly after the Social takes place, they begin work on their
Spring play. Taking only a mere week and a half to help with Cafe Choco-
lat, drama thespians spend an impressive five months of endless rehearsal,
line memorization, blocking, and set building, solely for the spring perfor-
mances. Thus, a task with such an immense amount of work put into it is
bound to be amazing.
The last detail that should be taken into account is the vast difference be-
twixt this year’s performance and previous years. From the ‘Wizard of Oz’
and ‘No Place Like Nowhere’ to ‘A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s
Court,’ Drama stuck to silly comedies that pleased all audiences. Last year,
they took on ‘Antigone,’ a famous tragedy by Sophocles. Any who attend-
ed can testify that it was like nothing the school had seen due to its com-
pletely original musical score written by director Derk Schmidt, the amaz-
ing lighting skills by senior and four-year drama student Jenny Barnhill, or
simply the story itself. Many viewers asked drama members how they were
going to top ‘Antigone’ the following year. The answer was simple: Shake-
speare.
Drama is truly taking on the royalty of theater and they encourage all mem-
bers of the Florence and surrounding communities to come and take this
journey with them. The small house of drama everyone used to know is
gone, and it would be a shame if anyone were to miss the building of their
amazing city.
The production will take place in the New Gym this year because, quite
frankly, it wouldn’t fit in the old one. Seriously. Showtimes are Friday and
Saturday, May 13-14, at 7 pm, and Sunday, May 15 at 2 pm. Tickets are $5
or $2 for students and FCS staff. If you do not attend this play, a plague a’
both your houses. Your houses!

MUSIC NOTES
Florence Carlton Middle School Parents Association is look-
ing for officers for the 2016-17 school year!
The Florence Carlton Middle School Parent Association is
comprised of parent volunteers who work hard raising funds
for our middle school kids. All the money raised by the
FCMPA goes toward providing for middle school activities
such as dances, 8th grade promotion and classroom supplies
not already funded through the school.
We have had strong leadership and participation for the past
several years, but now it’s time for the next generation of
Middle School parents to take over and help our students have
a wonderful middle school experience.
If you’re the parent of a 5th – 7th grade student who is interest-
ed in being involved, we ask you to please attend our final
monthly FCMSPA meeting on Tuesday, May 10th in the
school library at 6 pm. We will be electing officers and are
looking for individuals willing to help lead our amazing com-
munity of kids, teachers and parents.
And check out our Florence Carlton Middle School Parent As-
sociation Facebook page for updates and information about
this and many other activities the FCMPA is involved with.
“Hat Day” is coming Friday, May 6th!
The F/C Middle School Parent Association is sponsoring it’s
last fundraiser of the year by encouraging all Florence students
to participate in “Hat Day.” For $1 you can wear your favorite
hat for the entire day. The FCMPA will have a table set up in
front of the high school office on Friday morning from 7:45
am to 8:15 am. Pay your buck and wear your hat for the
remainder of the day.
