What an amazing week it has been at FES! Our creative principal, Mrs. Burkum came up with an amazing idea to help celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week! Starting on Monday, staff have been spinning a wheel and getting to do fun and exciting challenges to win points for a game of Survivor! Cards have been made, parking spots decorated, marshmallows tossed, impersonations, cheers, singing, guessing games.....the list goes on and on!
This game is even being featured by local media! There is an article in this week's Fennimore Times, and if you tune in tomorrow, Friday, May 6th, to 97.7 WGLR at 12:30 pm....you will even hear a radio interview done about this fun game!
The big winner will be announced tomorrow.....who will it be?! Stay tuned to our social media to find out!

Mrs. Wienkes' 4th grade students have been busy learning how energy works! They have built two different roller coasters and learned why the first hill is always the biggest. It's been fun to learn about energy through such a hands on activity! #fes #EaglesSoar

Excitement is brewing in the 2nd grade hallway! Today is Day 10 of incubating eggs! If all is just right, the baby chick, by day 7, will have developed its vital organs, beak, legs, and wings. Then, around Day 8, feathers will have started to form on the chick. By day 18, the embryo will have developed into a chick and will take up most of the space in the egg as the chick prepares to hatch.
Earlier in the week, the 2nd grade students candled their eggs, which means they shined a bright light through the egg. What were they looking for? They were looking for a dark streak that tells them something has started growing in the egg. They also were looking for blood vessels that bring nourishment to the baby chick! #EaglesSoar #FenSchools

Harriet Tubman, Gandhi, Helen Keller, Anne Frank, and Jackie Robinson were some of the biographies Mrs. Melcher's students chose to read for their Bottle Buddy Biography unit. Reading biographies can often help students learn about the world through the struggles and challenges others have faced. Great work 3rd graders! #fes #EaglesSoar

Today the elementary students had the opportunity to walk up to the high school to listen to the high school band and choir students perform. In addition to some small groups perform, they listened to the show choir, jazz band, madrigal, and handbell choir.
Thank you for being such a great audience elementary students! Good luck tomorrow at state solo/ensemble high school performers!

Mayor Boebel visited all of the first grade classes recently to talk about his job as mayor. We learned about the best parts of his job and how he works with others to help Fennimore. We also learned fun facts about him. It was a greatly anticipated visit! #fes #EaglesSoar
