Staff Underground Dress Up Days!
Each Thursday, the FES staff has a special surprise for the students with a Underground Dress Up Day. So far this year the staff has wore sunglasses, character shirt, tie dye, dress like a student, wig, and sock and sandals. It has been a lot of fun having the students guess what the theme is each Thursday. We hope this gets the students excited about coming to school on Thursday to see what the crazy FES staff is going to do that day! 🙃

2026-2027 Student of the Month Program
It's back! Each month students are chosen by the classroom teacher and Special Teacher to represent their class for Student of the Month. Teachers look for students that display Safe, Responsible, and Respectful behaviors each and every day.

NURSE NEWS
We are entering the flu season and have already had several illnesses going around since the students have returned. Please review the following in an effort to stay healthy this school year!
School Health Policy:
Students should be kept home with the following:
- Fever over 100 degrees (must be fever free for 24 hours without fever reducing medication)
- Rash of unknown origin, must be cleared by a healthcare provider and determined not to be contagious in nature
- Redness, drainage from eyes, or symptoms of pink eye (requires physician note to return and must be on antibiotic for 24 hours prior to return).
- Vomiting or diarrhea (must be stopped for 24 hours prior to returning)
If you are not sure if your child should return or stay home, please don't hesitate to call and speak with the nurse.
Encourage your student/s to get a good night of rest, good nutrition and plenty of fluids! Send a water bottle with your student each day!
Washing hands is the single best way to prevent the spread of germs!

Chromebook
We saw a lot of damage last year on our Chromebooks! The Chromebook insurance might be a good idea for FES families.
Things to remember about Chromebooks:
- Chromebooks and chargers are FLCS property that the student uses. When the students leaves FLCS they have to turn these in.
- NO STICKERS are allowed on our Chromebooks. You may be charged to have the stickers cleaned off.
- 4th-6th graders: If you take your Chromebook home it is your responsibility to charge it nightly.
- If you lose a charger you must purchase a new one from the school and they are $49! Don't lose those chargers!
Eagle Packs
A program has been brought to Frankton Community Schools called Eagle Packs. This program is a community mission sponsored by the local churches and community members. Each bag will contain consumable food for the weekend (breakfast, lunch, and dinner items plus 2 snacks for each student). This is an anonymous program so your child will not be identified to students as receiving the bags.
Please fill out the form below if you are interested in signing up your child(ren)- by Friday, Aug. 21 for your child to begin the program.
Students will begin receiving bags on Friday, September 21st.
Thank you,
Eagle Pack Committee
