Students in 7th grade science are constructing earthquake-proof structures and analyzing the best designs to make buildings sturdy. The tallest structure that withstands a 10 second earthquake on a shake table is the winner.
We appreciate you!
Student council used inside recess last week to count the acts of kindness. In the short 3 day Kindness week, 859 acts of kindness were completed at FES! That is awesome!! Special thanks to Mrs. Ambort and all the student council members for organizing the Kindness Week activities and to everyone who participated.
Also, we have more exciting news! Due to our school’s participation in The Great Kindness Challenge, we have been awarded the honor of being a Kindness Certified School. Great job everyone!! #fes #EaglesSoar

2nd grade students from Mrs. Reinke's class and Mrs. Kauffman's class planted two varieties of milkweed seeds in milk jugs with Mrs. Williams-Richter.
