FPCS Tidbits
January 22, 2021
Message from Principal Parker
FPCS is working to renew our charter and we are looking for parent volunteers to participate in our Rechartering Committee. We will be meeting 1-2 times a month and doing some writing and artifact gathering to present to the ASD school board and the state for their approval. If you are you interested in serving on this committee, reach out to the principal at parker_jessica@asdk12.org. Our first meeting via zoom will be January 28th @ 2:30pm.
Way to bee! Madilynn will represent FPCS in the State Spelling Bee on March 5, 2021
