Brownie Troop 98464 completed their project of beautifying the entrances to our buildings yesterday. The girls are all FKS second graders. We thank the girls and their Troop Leader Mrs. Chardoussin for their time and efforts creating these seasonal displays. They look great!
Mr. Craver gratefully accepts a donation of stress relieving materials for each building from Reach Out Non-Profit President Matthew Ashburn. Materials included pop-its, coloring books and colored pencils, Play-Doh, stress balls, and journals. Mrs. Sokol, our school counselor, will share them with students throughout the year.
Many thanks to Reach Out Non-Profit, and Mr. Ashburn, for thinking of our students.
FKS faculty use their after school meeting time to continue their professional learning, becoming more familiar with our new student performance data warehouse and individual educational plan creation portals. They are a dedicated and hard working group of professionals.
Mrs. Sokol and Mrs. Rabar engaged students with their lessons during the Week of Respect. Mrs. Sokol taught the first Paw of the Wolf - The Power to Choose. Mrs. Rabar taught students how to be a good upstander by speaking up, reaching out, and being a friend.
