Falcon Flyer monthly news & updates

Back to School Planning Edition

Classes will be back in session in just a little over a month which means there is still plenty of time for families to apply and enroll for the fall semester. We are seeing continued interest for fall and anticipating an increase in enrollment from last year! Thanks to generous donors, we still have some tuition assistance available for incoming families as well.

We have been providing tours multiple times a week and are excited to welcome numerous new students and families to our community.

As we prepare for the start of classes, we want to make sure our families, friends, and supporters are aware of several events and activities taking place in the next few weeks. Be sure to catch all the news and updates in this edition of the Falcon Flyer.
We are excited to officially kick-off our 25th Anniversary celebration at the end of this month.

We invite you to join us on Saturday, August 28 at 9am at 3400 Flood Road for a special time of prayer and dedication for our school.

We will be announcing an exciting project for the future of Foothills at that time.

We hope you will join us to learn more about upcoming events this year, our new projects, and an update on how God is working in and through FCCS.

We are also looking for past students, teachers, alumni, and families to provide brief videos for us to share during our anniversary year. If Foothills has impacted you, we would love to get your story recorded and share it with our community.

If you would like to provide a video or assist with any of the event planning, contact us at 406-452-5276 or email advancement@foothillschristian.org.

International Student Host Homes Needed for this Fall
Foothills is approved to host and educate international students who are looking to enroll in our school. We currently have three students interested in attending this fall but we are in immediate need of host homes for them. Hosts are provided with a stipend to help offset the costs associated with housing these students.

If you or someone you know are interested in learning more about being a host home this fall or in the future, please contact David Culpepper, Head of School, at 406-452-5276 or by email at dculpepper@foothillschristian.org.
Save the Date for our 2022 Spring Banquet
Mark your calendars for Saturday, April 2, because you won't want to miss our 2022 Spring Banquet and 25th Anniversary Celebration.

We are excited to share that our keynote speaker will be just the 2nd female to headline our banquet! We will also be adding an after banquet event as a special celebration of our 25-year history.

A formal announcement of the speaker is coming in September, but if your business or family would like to be a Corporate Sponsor for our event, please contact Kerri Koteskey, Advancement Coordinator or call 406-452-5276 x409 to schedule an appointment and learn about our new sponsorship options and 25th Anniversary event.
Space Camp is Launching August 16
Mr. Castle is excited to provide a new and unique camp opportunity for students entering grades 7-12.

As part of the camp, students will launch and retrieve a High Altitude Balloon. This camp is open to all middle and high school students in our area so please help spread the word to those you know who may not attend FCCS.

The priority deadline has passed but students can still enroll. Class is limited to 25 students and the cost is only $75. Scholarship assistance is also available.

Community Partnership Program
As we look toward a new school year, we are ready to renew membership in our Community Partnership Program!

Over the past few years, our partners have provided thousands of dollars of support to not only help with general operating costs of the school, but also to provide specific supplies in our classrooms which have helped our teachers enhance their teaching opportunities.

Funds have been used to purchase flexible seating, books, hands-on projects for students, funding for field trips and special certifications. Our partners have also provided funding for our Foothills App and RightNow Media Access! We also have all new opportunities for you to support our athletic program this year!

If you are interested in learning more about our program or renewing your support for the 2021-22 year, please contact Kerri Koteskey at kkoteskey@foothillschristian.org or schedule a renewal meeting call here.
