Shout Out!
PTO Star Award Winners
Each year the Germantown Municipal Council PTO honors three employees from each GMSD school with the STAR of Excellence Award. Our PTO accepted nominations for this award back in January from parents and even from other FHES teachers/staff. Thank you to everyone who submitted a nomination!
After reviewing over fifty nominations, the FHES PTO board voted this past Tuesday on our school’s three recipients.
Congratulations to our 2020-2021 STAR of Excellence Award winners!
Andrea Dancy (Kindergarten teacher)
Kati Henley (teacher assistant)
Alison Herrington (school nurse)
Flash happily helped us announce and deliver their awards on Friday!
