Mrs. Langmeier's annual ski trip to Sundown Mountain has returned -- with a twist! On February 4th we invite all Fennimore students and their families to enjoy an evening of skiing or snowboarding at Sundown Mountain in Dubuque, Iowa. Students in grades 5-8 will receive this letter at school and other copies will be available in both school offices, from Mrs. Meyer, and Mrs. Ihm. What's new is that this is now a fundraiser for the Washington DC trip. A $5 donation will be added to Sundown's greatly reduced group rate. Also, registration is now online and only a check and the bottom portion of the letter will be sent to school to hold your registration spot! Here is the link and the codes for our group registration. http://shop.sundownmtn.com/groups Code: Fennimore If you are interested in attending, please return the bottom portion of this letter and make checks payable to Fennimore Schools by Thursday, Jan. 20th.

Mrs. Chiefari recently hosted CESA's Brad Van Epps, also known as "Brad the Book Guy," as he presented his bi-weekly book talks to students from area schools over Zoom. Brad does a great job recommending books and encouraging our middle and high school students to be readers.
