Did you know that each year our school counselors throughout the district organize Holiday Help for some of our families in need? This year, McDonald Ford reached out to us on how they could help and our counselors are currently working with them to make the holiday season magical for some of our families. As the list of needs kept growing, McDonald Ford enlisted Quick Lane Freeland for additional support of this program and we look forward to sharing how this is progressing and how you can help over the next few weeks!

FMS is back at our lunch competitions after a nice long Thanksgiving Break and we challenged our students to bring their 'A' game because we are bringing the tough brain teasers for the rest of 2024. Today's winners got 5 out of 8 right by the end of lunch and they were awarded SOAR slips for their efforts.
