The FCS Atoms Update
Feb 3-7th
Greetings!
It is the month of February and though not spring yet, the days start their gradual transition to longer daylight hours. And according to Punxsutawney Phil an early spring is in the works. This week due to a decrease in breakfast numbers, we will have 2nd chance breakfast after 1st period in which students can stop by a cart and get breakfast at 9:45am. Remember breakfast is provided for free to all students!
This week we have several opportunities for 8th graders to narrow down their decisions for high school with open houses being held at McDowell Early College, McDowell Academy for Innovation and McDowell High School (see below dates and times). Great options for our students within the district. Mrs. Widmann will join us on Wednesday to have a Q & A period for prospective applicants. JROTC will be present on Friday to participate in team-building opportunities with our 8th graders.
Remember that applications for high school enrollment are due Feb 14th and can be completed here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScybx_-LZO8yjKoF9YqlMGngUMSXLFK6czkBM_r3bvcZnhiUw/viewform
Thanks!
