Each week, FHS staff members have the opportunity to nominate a student who stands out for going above and beyond. Whether it’s showing kindness, stepping up to help others, demonstrating leadership, working hard, or simply making FHS a better place, these students deserve to be celebrated!
This week, we’re proud to recognize Kiera for making a positive difference at Fennimore High School. Keep up the great work—we’re proud to have you as an Eagle!

A great opportunity to explore careers in agriculture and experience what Southwest Tech has to offer!

October is Fire Prevention Month! Our kindergarten, 2nd, and 4th grade students had the opportunity last week to visit the fire station and learn about fire safety and the important work firefighters do to keep the community safe. From the exciting experience of sitting in a fire truck to getting a closer look at the equipment firefighters use, it was a great opportunity to learn from the local heroes who help protect the community! A big thank-you to the firefighters for taking the time to teach our students!#fes #EaglesSoar
