MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL

Dear Fowler Family,


Congratulations are in order for our students as they will hit the halfway point in our school year this Thursday. All students will receive a copy of their semester 2 schedule in Morning Meeting on Monday, 2/6. For the vast majority of students, Morning Meeting and core teachers will remain the same but any semester (i.e. health, 6th grade ed tech, some electives) classes will change beginning Monday, 2/6.


Our Choir program also put on an amazing performance last Thursday, so we want to give a big shout out to Mrs. Routh and the Choir students! #superproud


Be well and stay healthy,


Andy

Federal and state mandatory testing is going to occur in English Language Arts & Math for all Fowler students this spring. Additionally, eighth grade students will be tested in Science. We rely on these assessments to assist with student placements, funding, and academic growth tracking. Eighth grade Science students will test during their regularly scheduled Science class during the week of March 13th-17th. We will have a special schedule for all students on April 17th-25th (excluding Wednesday) where they will test (ELA & Math) with their morning meeting group for an extended amount of time. Please ensure your students arrive on time, get a good night of sleep, and please avoid making any appointments during this time. Thank you for your support during this process.
