Lil Steamer Families --

Linked are two letters detailing the mySAEBRS (Social, Academic, Emotional & Behavior Risk Screener) that our 2nd-5th grade students complete as a self evaluation. Our K-5 teachers also complete a screener for each student, but K-1 does not have a self evaluation. Please read the following linked letters for more information.

1 - mySAEBRS Overview

2 - mySAEBRS Parent Update

Hello, Families!

I'm so excited to be starting my 20th year here at the school, and I'm especially thrilled to be stepping into my new role as your assistant principal. It's been a wonderful experience getting to visit so many different classrooms and see all the fantastic things our students are learning.

While my new role has me buzzing with excitement, I've truly loved getting back to the heart of what makes our school special: our students. I look forward to continuing to get to know all of you this year and celebrate the amazing things our students accomplish.

Find the Good

Self-direct your thoughts and share good things as a family each day. After school, around the dinner table, or before bed, ask each family member to share something good from the day. We often see what we seek! Focus on finding the good.

It is easy to learn about the teacher that your child/children have or have had. However, at FBP and FES, we are one large team. For this reason, we will introduce and give some fun information about each of our family members in our newsletter!
