Today the hunt was on for our kindergarten classes looking for their missing gingerbread cookies. They stopped in classes looking for clues, and even found Mr. Reeder nibbling on one of the gingerbread legs!
Eventually the missing cookies were found! It was so much fun!
Tomorrow, Friday Sept 2, FCES students will celebrate completing our 3rd week of school & heading into the Labor Day weekend with a SIP Day picnic! Just like any other typical day at FCES, students should bring a sack lunch or purchase a lunch from the cafeteria. The only difference for tomorrow is that students will get to eat outside or in the classroom for a class picnic!
Our students had a blast doing this last year & we look forward to doing this again!

3rd Grade 7 Habits Team Building!
Ms. Fisher & Mrs. Hanlin's 3rd graders, recently, did a team building activity which included 2 of our Habits of Happy Kids. Groups were challenged to create & implement a plan. Students had to work together to construct a building while just using raw spaghetti & marshmallows. Check out all the fun!
Hello, Families!
FCES is having an excellent start to the school year! This includes our continued incorporation of the Leader in Me program: 7 Habits of Happy Kids. The first couple weeks teachers spend time building relationships with our students & introducing these habits through different activities. Pictured is a description of each habit. Please feel free to ask your student(s) what they have learned about these & how they can demonstrate these traits both at school & at home.
Just a friendly reminder that Picture Day is tomorrow for FCES! If you are interested in pictures, please fill out the form that was sent home or you can find the form on Parent Square & send it back with your student. Make sure your kiddos pack their smiles, as well! 😉
