We trust you are enjoying the last few weeks of summer before we kick off an amazing school year. For those that have driven by I am sure you have seen our extensive parking lot renovations, which are almost complete. Inside the buildings, work continues on our all-new STEAM spaces which we are excited to show off once they are complete.

Some important upcoming dates for you to be aware of:

Kindergarten and New Student Bus Orientation:
We invite you to attend this brief bus orientation in the Kossmann school multi-purpose room on Tuesday August 26th at 10:30am. Building Administrators will welcome everyone followed by an introduction of the PTA. The transportation department will run a bus orientation followed by students having the opportunity to take a brief ride on a school bus to familiarize themselves with the process of boarding, buckling, riding and disembarking.

Family Walkthroughs
We invite you to bring your student to their respective school and classroom on Wednesday, August 27th. Kindergarten through 5th grade is invited between 11am and 12pm while Preschool is invited from 2:30-3:00pm. You can meet the teachers, drop off school supplies and see the classroom. Please be aware that teachers are engaging in Professional Development throughout the day, so the above times are firm.

Parent Portal
On Friday 8/22 the parent portal is tentatively scheduled to open between 3-4pm. This is your means to see your child's assigned homeroom teacher, bus information and other relevant start of school information.

We are excited to share these opening activities with you as we prepare for a fun, challenging and collaborative school year.

We were honored to have members of the American Veterans Association of Washington Township Post 1776 to share with the FKS community a recognition of Memorial Day to remember and honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice while serving our country around the world in defense of our freedoms. The veterans with us served during war and peace time and represented almost all branches of our military. We welcomed them to FKS so that we could recognize and thank them for their selfless service to our country, and as a reminder on how important veterans are to our nation and the nations wherever they served.

Congratulations to those students who represented FKS during the evening 'Night of the Notables' event! See some of the students below.

FKS - Reminder that school is closed Monday and Tuesday

Congratulations to 5th grade students Emma , Julia , and Hadley for taking on an amazing Service Learning Project.
