If your child earned prizes for Jump Rope for Heart in Feb 2020 based on donations, please come pick up their prizes from 11 AM-12 Noon and 3-4PM Tues 9/29 during lunch/recess. Just drive to the Gym Doors, give your child's name, and everything will be outside for us to grab for you. NO NEED TO GET OUT OF THE CAR. We will come to you.
We have one volunteer, but could use another one for these classes: Trembath, Parise, Mize, and Boris.
Thank you for considering to volunteer as a homeroom parent this year! We appreciate it! If interested, please click on the button above to sign up.
Reminders from the PTO
We do not plan to do a large Fundraising campaign unless we go back to the building and our budget needs to increase but we will concentrate on smaller FUN-raisers to engage our FHE Community including Cyber and Remote 2.0 BOBCATS. We are planning to use money raised last year and this year for the following:
1) FHE BOBCAT SIGNAGE above the Stage!!
2) Replace water fountains with Bottle Refill Stations
3) Bathroom Poster artwork-encouraging messages

WCASD Counseling and Mental Health Professionals Service Guide
We recognize that our students at home may feel isolated. Please know that one of our main goals is to help your children feel connected to their teacher, classroom and Fern Hill! Our district has a Counseling and Mental Health Professionals Service Guide to provide supports and resources if your child is having a difficult time through all of this. This guide provides Counselor and Mental Health Professionals' contact information, services, important forms, and additional resources for parents of students Kindergarten through 12th grade.
