⭐FARMER TICKET WINNERS ⭐
FCES had our BIG end of year Farmer Ticket drawing. All year students have been earning Farmer Tickets by following our 7 Habits for Happy Kids, making good choices, & being LEADERS in the building. We had our monthly drawings but we saved up all the tickets for this final event. Congratulations to all of our winners (pictured) including 2nd grader Layla Marion who was our BIG school-wide winner this year!

Mrs. Stockham was named the 2024 Helen Farmer Haggerty Award Winner! The award is presented yearly to a teacher, chosen by vote of the faculty, as someone who represents the same dedication to her profession, and the ability to encourage the best effort from her students, as did Helen Farmer Haggerty. The winner is able to choose a student from her classroom who shows growth and potential for the future. Novah Warner was our student award winner. Congratulations to both of our winners!
