This past week in Trojan time we focused on community service and identifying needs in our community, nationally, or internationally that we can support. Students in trojan time collaborated, developed a plan, and created a goal to achieve this. Most of the groups will carry this out later in May but Mr. Rebling’s Trojan time did theirs this week. They recognized our awesome police force and served them this week. So proud of this group!


Congrats to Aries, Kendra, and Nolan for receiving the 8th grade shout outs this week! We are super proud of your hard work in classes! Keep up the great work!


Students are hooked 🪝 and engaged in science today as they dissect fish and learn about the anatomy! So neat and interesting! I could have stayed all day! 🎣





Finally! Some great weather. Students enjoyed pickle ball during PE today.




Well this is amazing! 🎸These four students have been working hard in their new LIFT enrichment groups. They are working with Mr. Roush on constructing guitars out of materials. This is a rough cut of the guitar body. Can’t wait to see the finished product! 🎶🪕🎶





This week has already been filled with lots of great learning for our staff. Staff took time to analyze our community day feedback forms from local businesses to identify celebrations and opportunities for growth for next year. This time to analyze our feedback and collaborate with one another was wonderful!

Our first community Leader In Me event happened today! This is something that we have planned for all year, and we were so thrilled and excited for such a successful day. Over 100 student leaders helped to pull this event off today!
During this event we had over 80 guests and over 30 local businesses represented. Students signed up for these leadership roles and created their own scripts and presentations. We were so proud of their hard work.
Students discussed an overview of the seven habits of highly effective people, our successes with morning trojantime groups, and other great things happening the FMS. Following the student presentations our student tour guides took our community members around the school on a tour of the school and into classrooms. It was a great event and huge success.
Our goal for this event was to showcase what awesome work our students are doing as well as to bridge the gap between our community and schools. We have an outstanding community and lots of opportunities for our students to explore.
We want to thank all the community members who came out to visit today!

While doing school walkthroughs, Officer Anderson caught two students doing great things! Ireland and Taryn were both given gift cards for McDonald’s!
Ireland - has been seen picking things up around the school and keeping things neat and safe for the students and staff.
Taryn- started a petition to get a volleyball net for 5th grade recess. She got all of the signatures she needed along with the new net.
Great job ladies! Keep leading by example and keep up the good work!
