Red Ribbon Week is coming next week to FES! The annual National Red Ribbon Campaign™ began in 1985. The campaign's goals are to educate youth on the dangers of drug use and the importance of making healthy choices. The theme this year is "Celebrate life, live drug free". This theme is a reminder that everyday Americans across the country make significant daily contributions to their communities by being the best they can be because they live Drug-Free!

It was a chilly day, but that didn't stop the Kindergarten students from having a blast at Vesperman Farms! The kids enjoyed feeding the goats and petting other animals, exploring the mini corn maze, zipping down the zip line, taking a wagon ride, picking a pumpkin, and other fun activities at the farm. #EaglesSoar

It is National School Bus Safety Week (NSBSW). National School Bus Safety Week reminds students, parents, teachers, and the community to keep school bus safety at the forefront.
Roughly 54% of all K-12 students in the United States rely on school bus transportation. More than 25 million children ride school buses daily throughout the United States. That accounts for 47,000,000 trips daily – before you include an estimated 5,000,000 more for activity trips. Let's all do our part to keep our students and drivers safe! #EaglesSoar
Don't forget about this fun event coming up next week! #EaglesSoar

This week's Class of the Week is Mrs. Schoenberg's 3rd Grade Class. Mrs. Schoenberg's Class has been working hard on mastering their multiplication facts. They have been learning different strategies to use when multiplying. In reading they have been working on finding the main idea and the key details in a text. Last Friday they went on a field trip to Folklore Village and learned about different games and dances from the past. They even made their own wool balls. This week they have been celebrating Pumpkin Week and have been creating their own pumpkin globes and learning about the life cycle of pumpkins. This class has been so fun to get to know and it will be exciting to watch them continue to grow! Keep up the great work 3rd Graders!
3rd Graders visited Folklore Village by Dodgeville last Friday. During their trip they learned about how folklore is passed from generation to generation. They also learned about where wool comes from, its many uses, and what is made from it. All students got to make a ball from wool by forming it into felt. The visit to the one-room school house was interesting and the students enjoyed playing some of the games that the children who attended school back then would have played. To end the afternoon, students were taught how to dance the waltz and a couple other dances that were popular many years ago. It was a great day of learning and playing. #EaglesSoar
