In preparation for Fire Prevention Week, the fire department came to FCES to present the importance of fire safety. Sparky the fire dog made his valiant return to FCES to help with the presentation. The students really enjoyed the presentation & got some cool fire prevention gear. A BIG thank you goes out to the fire department!

A big THANK YOU to everyone who donated & wore gold for childhood cancer awareness!

Here are just a few pictures of the many Farmers that wore gold! #ThankYou #WeAreFarmers

Ellie & Tucker are two FCES Farmers who have had childhood cancer directly affect their lives. Ellie is currently out of school fighting so hard, but hopes to return next semester. Tucker finished two and a half years of treatment, recently finished and is now a survivor! Their families are very appreciative of all the support they have received from the community and St. Jude that they wanted to help bring awareness while, also, raising money to help other fighters who suffer from cancer right here in Central Illinois. 🎗
This week FCES will have a "Change to Bring Change" fundraiser. Each morning students can bring in change to place in a large donation jug. Our goal is to fill this jug so we can send it as a donation to the Midwest St. Jude Affiliate/Heller Center for Kids with Cancer here in Peoria in Ellie & Tucker's names. 🎗
*In addition, Friday, traditionally, is a Purple & Gold day at FCES. This Friday we would love to see everyone wear gold to help bring awareness to childhood cancer. 🎗
