Questions to Ask Your Child Instead of Asking: "How Was Your Day?"


  • What made you laugh today?
  • What is something you heard that surprised you?
  • Did you get better at anything today?
  • What was something that really made you think?
  • What was the best part of your day?
  • Tell me about a time when you felt proud of yourself?
  • What is something that didn't go as well as you would have liked today?

FLM Parents & Guardians:

Thank you for a great start to our 2022-2023 school year! It is our pleasure to spend each day learning and making memories with your students as they grow and prepare for the future. At FLM, we make safety and security our priority each day. Extra precautions have been implemented this year for locking gates, keeping all interior doors locked, and establishing Safety Committees to continually monitor and improve our procedures. As a primary campus, our goal is to establish a love of learning for your students while providing a solid educational foundation to set your students up for success in school. Learning is an Adventure and we are happy that your child's adventure in education is with our faculty and staff at F.L. Moffett! Please let us know if there is anything we can do to better support your child
