Great news, Fort Scott Tiger fans! Your amazing support has helped us win the @TMobile #FN5GL $5K Fridays sweepstakes on September 27th. We’re so proud of our Tiger spirit, but we can't stop here! Help us reach our next milestone as a Top 16 finalist by sharing your best moments from our Tiger football games and tagging @TMobile with #FN5GL and #Sweepstakes. Let’s keep the energy high and show off our Tiger pride! Thank you all for being part of this journey—Go Tigers!!!
We will be hosting our APPLY KS event next week in the mornings of October 7th and 9th in the FSHS Commons. Every senior will be at least required to apply to FSCC even if they are not college bound ~plans change and we want them to be the most prepared for whichever path they choose.
October 7th-9th are FREE days for Kansas Universities so this is a great opportunity for our students! All Kansas Public colleges will have free admissions applications during this time. An added bonus this year for us is that our students will also be able to apply to MSSU for free!
