National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day

Thank you Sean!

"Our definition of a hero is someone who protects our world and who continues to make it a better place, despite having to see its darkest aspects everyday. Our hero courageously puts on his or her badge each day and sacrifices more daily than most do in a lifetime."

We see you, We appreciate you.

FES Special Recognition

Thank you to all of our volunteers for putting together Bear Hug food boxes for FES families. We appreciate all of your hard work! We would also like to give a big thank you to the organizations that participated in the angle tree gift drive, your kindness is truly appreciated!

Student Council December Highlights

Student Council has been working cooperatively to decide on school spirit days, community outreach, and other activities. They chose to hold a canned food drive for the holiday season, decorate the foyer with "thankful" leaves, and host a door decorating contest. STUCO helped inspire the Golden Tray award for positive behavior in the cafeteria. Each week, representatives report out to their classmates and gather additional ideas for school improvement and FES Bear pride. Thank you to our STUCO representatives for modeling SR2 conduct and making our school a better place!

REMINDERS

Pre-Packaged Food Items

Any food brought to the school for parties, events, etc…. should be store bought and have labels on them. The reason for this is because we have students with severe allergies such as, but not limited to tree nuts. We are asking that you refrain from sending peanut or tree nut products to school. Please reference student handbook.

“Kiss and Go” Drop Off and Pick Up

**ALL students Kindergarten-6th grade are picked up or dropped off at the designated spot inside the front loop - there is no pick up or drop off in any other location.

**The front loop is THROUGH TRAFFIC ONLY - it is referred to as a “Kiss and Go’ drop off/pick up lane. Students can enter and exit their vehicle at the designated stop only. This will not be a parking spot- it will only be a momentary drop off or pick up spot. There are 2 red lines that indicate the drop off/pick up spot.

A Reminder From the Health Office:

The weather is very cold out so please have your children dress in layers and bring a coat with them to school everyday.

The Health Office needs to be aware of any health concerns your student may have. This includes any allergies, medications, or health problems.

No medications, including cough drops, may be carried to and from school by a student. All prescription medications to be taken at school, need to have the proper paperwork filled out by both the parent and doctor and submitted to the Health Office.
