Your Opinion Matters!

As part of our commitment to transparency and community engagement, we are inviting parents, guardians, and community members to participate in a focus group to support the hiring process for our next principal. Your perspectives and insights are invaluable in helping us identify the leadership qualities that best align with the needs and values of our school community. If you are interested in contributing to this important decision, please contact Michael Hatfield by June 17. We look forward to your participation in shaping the future of our school.

We will meet in the FES Library on Wednesday, June 18 from 1:00 - 2:00. Afterwards we will have our Celebration of Learning: A Year of Outdoor Lion's Learning.

STEM in Action: Forces & Bubbles!

Students in grades 3–4 became engineers, exploring forces to design safer cars and protect crash test dummies. Meanwhile, students in grades K–4 dove into a bubbling mystery, investigating what made those curious bubbles appear. A week full of wonder, creativity, and scientific discovery!

Ending the Year with Kindness and Fun

This week has been a cupful of fun in Kindergarten as we started our countdown of all of the special events we will be participating in until the end of the school year. We started off with a glow stick dance party on Monday, followed by a school-wide movie afternoon & Kona Truck on Tuesday, Xploration STEM activities on Wednesday, Field Day and a students birthday on Thursday, and we ended with a celebration of a student's summer birthday on Friday. Along with the fun, students have continued to shine by showing kindness to their classmates, being flexible when something new challenges their day, and they are doing amazing at showing their whole body listening skills. The kindergarteners have also started to work on perseverance this week as they learn how important it is to keep on going even when things get tough.
