Our eighth graders are presenting their literary essays this week. I was so impressed to hear Xavier and Christian‘s work today. The teachers have been raving about how awesome their speeches, information, and speaking skills were in class today! So proud!
Check out this amazing artwork from several of our students at FMS! These pieces of art are beautiful and so colorful! Way to go, Lana, Addison, Chris, Dorian, and Driton!

We would like to say a very special thank you to our Board of Directors and superintendent for giving all of our staff another bonus. Recently the Iowa Governor gave all Iowa teachers a bonus. While this is very generous, we were leaving out other critical staff that has made this year run smoother. So, this week our Board of Directors voted to give all staff bonuses because they value all staff and recognize their efforts. This is so generous and so awesome of our district! This is going above and beyond, and we are so grateful! ❤️
Reminder for FMS parents to sign up online for traditional conferences and student led presentations! Special thanks for Chase Countryman, PJ Bentley-Cross, and Henry Swan who have worked hard on this marketing post in our leadership team meetings!
Check out this spoon billed paddle fish Mr. Klehm brought in this week for students. Students were able to examine the fish and even look at its spinal cord! So neat! 🎣
FMS leadership team met today to continue to discuss ways to make FMS a better place for all. We focused on the end of the year activities, field trips, and how to make the environment look more attractive. These leaders have such great ideas and they do a fantastic job of collaborating. Love the time I get to spend with them! ❤️👏

Wow 🤩 These student conference presentations were amazing today as they started to practice and rehearse. Gives me chills hearing about the accomplishments and achievements by students this year. Student Led Conferences are right around the corner. We hope all parents can come join us next week on March 21 - 22 to hear their student share their portfolio. Students have been working during their classes as well as their Trojan time to prepare their celebrations, leadership roles, what they have learned in classes, and reflect on areas they need to grow in. We are excited as we start this journey of Student Led Conferences. To sign up for conferences go to our district website and click on the parent teacher conference tab. Hope to see you next week!
Happy National Pi Day! Thank you to our amazing student council who gave all staff a personal pie to celebrate! Thank you for your thoughtfulness!

6th graders spent time writing during their ELA class today. ✍️ One of our top priorities has been to increase our writing demands and provide explicit instruction on how to improve student writing. Writing is important in all content areas and the real world. It helps our learners process what they are learning and show what they understand. We have some excellent writers!
Hallways smelled delicious at FMS today! 🧑🍳7th graders were hard at work making protein muffins! Yummy!
