Tonight’s (8/25) baseball game is canceled . There will be no practice as well. Also, Cross Country practice for tonight is canceled.
Good luck to the boys baseball team. They are playing Mossville tonight at home.
Art class today was really fun! The students are working like cave people used to do!
Great job this weekend by our Jr. High band! They marched in the Yates City parade, their first parade of the year!
The Jr. High is using today’s late start to create a data wall for our students and staff. This data will help us make educational decisions on what our students needs are for this school year.
This is a reminder that tomorrow, Monday August 16th, is a 1 hour delayed start. All buildings in the district will open up 1 hour later than their regularly scheduled time. Please visit the district website to view the 2021-2022 Calendar for any future 1 hour delayed starts.
It was a great night at Open House this evening! It was awesome to see so many people there and to talk with several parents and students. Thank you all for a great night! I look forward to seeing the kids tomorrow for the First Day of School!
-Principal Uptmor
Open House is tomorrow night from 6:00-7:30. You can meet your teachers, follow your schedule, and practice your locker combinations. Mr. Uptmor will also have a voluntary meeting for 6th grade parents and new families. It begins at 7:00 in the FCHS auditorium.
6th grade students are required to have a current medical physical and immunizations on file by the first day of school. If you would like to drop off at our office, please do so between the hours of 7:30 - 4:00 (Monday - Friday) or bring them to Open House on Thursday.
Good luck to our softball team this season! They are playing this morning in the Farmington Invitational.
All bands Jam Session at the summer concert tonight! Great job by all!
Very nice job by our 5th/6th and 7th/8th grade bands tonight at their Summer Camp Concert! For two weeks worth of work, their growth and progress has been super!
This school year is right around the corner! Open House on August 12 (6:00 - 7:30) is one week from today! If your child is in 6th grade or you are new to FCJHS and want to know just a little bit more, feel free to join Mr. Uptmor on August 12th at 7:00 PM in the high school auditorium for a very brief introduction and informational meeting about our school.
