FMS Conferences:

Feb. 8 - In Person

Feb. 9 - Virtual

Due to the volume of 6th grade attendees, there are 3 different links to sign up for a 6th grade conference. Any link will set up a conference with all four core teachers, but families only need to sign up once. In-person slots can have two families for one time slot, that is the reason for the Group A and Group B.

Mrs. Bethany Davis - FMS 7th Grade ELA

Mrs. Davis was born and raised in Colorado. She graduated from CU Boulder (Sko Buffs!) with an English degree. Mrs. Davis taught 6th grade ELA in Thornton for 6 years, but decided the city was getting way too crowded and moved to Grant in 2016. She was hired at Platte Canyon High School for Special Education, but missed teaching ELA and jumped at the opportunity to teach reading and writing again at the middle school level. She is so happy to be able to work with such an amazing staff, and group of kids, at Fitzsimmons.

Mrs. Davis' husband and kids enjoy playing games together, and going on long road-trip adventures. In their house they root for the Broncos, Nuggets, and our Stanley Cup Champion Avalanche. During the summer time, they spend most weekends either camping and boating or at the racetrack. They also have three dogs (including a Husky!), two turtles, and a cat.
