Fifth grade students in Mr. Kwilos' ELA class recently performed a Halloween Reader's Theater skit for their Social Studies classmates in Mrs. Forbes' room. The actors enjoyed performing for their peers, and are looking forward to doing it again. We applaud their courage!

FCSD is closed today in observance of Veterans Day. We thank all those who have served our country.
