Fulton Science Academy Mustang Support Organization
Share
The MSO is the parent volunteer group established to support and enrich students, families & school. So what exactly does the Mustang Support Organization do?
The Mustang Support Organization (MSO) is students, parents, teachers, staff, administration and all of us working together to make Fulton Science Academy one of the premier schools in the Southeast. We organize and sponsor activities throughout the school year that not only enhances our academic goals but also balances out the need for social activities, community involvement, teacher support, an
d facility improvement. Who is in the Mustang Support Organization? Every student, staff, and family member make up the MSO. We have an elected MSO Board that includes a President, Vice Presidents, Secretary & Treasurer. All of these board members meet monthly with our Administration Liaison, Mr. Turan and Teacher Liaison, Mrs. Sanders. If you are interested in serving as a member of the board, please let us know! What is the mandatory Activity Fee? The Activity Fee is $100 per student paid directly to the Mustang Support Organization. Currently, we are a 501c3 that is separate from the Fulton Science Academy Private School 501c3. This is why the fee is paid directly to the parent organization and not to FSA. The $100 Activity Fee is clearly listed on the FSA website tuition cost list as part of the payment due to attend FSA. THE ACTIVITY FEE IS A MANDATORY FEE FOR ALL STUDENTS. If you are receiving financial aid or have some other type of hardship, please speak with Mr. Sener to receive a waiver for this fee. How and when do I pay my Activity Fee? The activity fee is due no later than September 1st. We need to collect all activity fees at the beginning of the academic year so that we can properly plan our budget and activities. You may click on the link below to pay your fee(s) via PayPal. Or you may also, pay with cash, check or credit card during orientation. However, we would strongly recommend using the convenient link and save yourself some time and one less line on Orientation Day. Families who have not paid by September 1st will start receiving reminders until the fee for each student in their household is paid in full.

Every student has the opportunity to participate and receives benefits from all of the activities listed above. It would not be fair if only a few families paid the cost for everyone and without everyone paying their fair share, we would have to eliminate many of these programs which would affect the quality of our school environment. Throughout the year, we will have many opportunities for you to volunteer and participate at Fulton Science Academy. We look forward to working with all of you that have helped in the past and encourage our new families to get involved too! If you ever have any questions, concerns or suggestions, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
