From the Principal's Desk
Hello FDES Families,
I would like to thank everyone who participated in our Grandparents Day Luncheon! It was a huge success!
It was great having the opportunity to meet so many of you!
The smiles on our student's faces were priceless!
We couldn't have accomplished this without the support of our awesome PTA and our amazing cafeteria staff!
