We Had Visitors This Week Teaching Some of Our Kids About Metal Casting!
Principal's Office
Here is our Roadrunner Weekly for the week of November 11th through November 15th. We hope everyone is enjoying this extend Veteran's Day weekend. Special thanks to all of those who serve or have served in the various branches of our military. We're deeply proud and thankful for your service!
And speaking of being thankful, we greatly appreciate the terrific turnout at this past Wednesday's McTeacher's Night. In just three hours we raised $1,273.00! Unbelievable! We are truly blessed and appreciative of being a part of such a generous and spirited community!
As weekly reminder, i-Ready is an important skill builder that our kids can access at school and at home. Our teachers try to build in time during the school day for some practice, but we also encourage your child to continue using it at home also as the program recommends a minimum of 45 minutes per subject, per week to help build math and ELA skills.
Lastly, please check out our staff websites to keep current on homework and class events.
Have a great week!
Mr. Cubias

Shady Creek 5th Grade Trip
This week, our 5th graders are heading to Shady Creek Outdoor School. If you would like to send letters to your kids, click this link for the instructions. Since the trip is a short one, send letters no later than Tuesday to give your child the best chance of receiving them. The kids will return around noon on Friday, and we encourage you to pick them up and take them home when they arrive...they'll need a good shower! We'll update you on a more precise arrival time on Friday morning. Check into our FSS Facebook page for trip pictures and updates!
Reminder About After School Enrichments
I just wanted to send out a reminder about some of the after school enrichments we are offering this year.

Financial assistance is often available if needed, but you’ll have to contact them directly. “Skills After School” soccer clinic and Early Engineers have just begun (you can still sign up at a prorated cost), and Firefly Art is scheduled to begin its next sessions soon; be sure to get signed up if you’d like your student to participate.
