Unified Community Services in Lancaster shared the following information with schools:
DEA warns of brightly-colored fentanyl being used to target young Americans. It is being seized in multiple forms, including pills, powder, and blocks that resembles sidewalk chalk. Just two milligrams of fentanyl, which is equal to 10-15 grains of table salt, is considered a lethal dose. Is you encounter fentanyl in any form, do not handle it and call 911 immediately! #seesomethingsaysomething #keepingkidssafe
Welcome back students and staff! Let's make 22-23 awesome! #EaglesSoar #fcs
Formal For Free’s mission is to provide memorable, equitable high school prom and homecoming experiences for deserving young women in our local communities.
Jen Kelley is the founder of the Formal For Free initiative. Her vision started with the goal of providing memorable, equitable high school prom and homecoming experiences for young women in our local communities, many of whom cannot afford the experience. These events are some of the most exciting, fun-filled experiences for young adults, and everyone should have access. What started as a small effort to gather some donated formal dresses has exploded due to the generosity of our amazing community! They’ve collected and currently have over 500 formal dresses available.
This pleasantly unexpected level of generosity comes with some additional expenses. Formal for Free is seeking financial donations to help them with these and other expenses as they arise.
· Dry cleaning
· Insurance
· Display racks
· Trifold changing stations
· Make-up and hair sessions or gift cards
· Meal fees
· Shoes and other accessories
One hundred percent of all donations support the Formal for Free initiative. Our goal is to maintain a large, diverse inventory for years. Every contribution will help get us closer to realizing our vision for every young woman in our local communities to feel beautiful and create special high school memories.

Today's #flashbackdfriday takes us back to the 2018-19 school year when the STEM Shuttle rolled into town. The STEM Shuttle is full of fun and engaging science, technology, engineering, and math activities for our upper elementary students. FES students have been able to enjoy this mobile classroom a few times since 2018 and will get another great learning opportunity when it returns to FES in early October. #flashbackfriday #EaglesSoar
Each summer, teachers and community members give of their time and knowledge to work with our elementary and middle school students for summer school. From working on reading and math skills, to learning life skills like cooking and fishing, our students benefit from learning something new each day. Thank you to all those who make our summer school program successful! #ThankfulThursday
For any students and 2022 graduates that weren't able to pick up their 2022 yearbook last week, you can pick it up in the High School office starting Aug. 1st. Stop in during regular hours.
