Freeland Middle School

It is Jersey Day at FMS and we tried to get a variety in these pictures as it really looks like the Detroit Lions have invaded our building today after the big Monday Night Football win! #GoFalcons

We had another Monday where we stumped the students! This group ended up being the first to get 7 out 8 brainteasers correct yesterday but the last one kept all of the teams guessing. For their win, they earned SOAR Slips and this shout out on social media. #GoFalcons

This week we would like to spotlight our Middle School Secretary, Mrs. Rae Glazier. Mrs. Glazier became the FMS Secretary during the 2023-24 school year and we are so thankful she is a Falcon! #GoFalcons

It is Homecoming Week and the FMS students are bringing their 'A' game for the Mathletes vs. Athletes Spirit Day today. It promises to be a fun week and this morning was a great start! #GoFalcons

Mr. Kazcor's 7th Grade Health classes have been studying the human skeleton and they created notecard skeletons to practice for their test next week on Thursday. #GoFalcons

After a week of prep, Ms. Ruffertshofer's 8th Grade ELA classes finally had their day in court for the Mock Trial of "The Tell Tale Heart." We are proud of the way our students questioned and defended their cases. It was a creative, fun way to explore this story. #GoFalcons

Another general trivia day, another new FMS lunch champion! Congrats to this group who won SOAR slips and this shout out on social media. We have our first SOAR drawing next Friday at the Homecoming Pep Assembly so every ticket is important at this point! #GoFalcons

Today 4 members of our FMS Student Leadership classes (Acelyn Woodard (7th), Hannah Fonger (8th), Julia Kowalski (7th), Tesla Provoast (8th)) along with Mrs. Ruffertshofer participated in the Virtual MASSP Student Mental Health Summit. We are excited to see what they bring back to implement in our building! #GoFalcons

We upped our game this week and not one FMS team was able to get all 8 out of 8 brain teasers right. This group was the first to get close with 7 out of 8 to earn the win which included SOAR slips and this shout out on social media. #GoFalcons

This team has been close a couple of times and finally cracked through today! For their categories win, they received SOAR slips and this shout out on social media. #GoFalcons

Our FMS Pom Team (missing a few 6th grade members) was decked out at school today and ready for their performance tonight which will be at halftime of the JV Football game. Come check out the game and our girls! #GoFalcons

Mr. Kade's 7th grade science students grew crystals in the lab this week to replicate how crystallization forms rocks when volcanoes erupt. #GoFalcons

This group won one of the closest lunch trivia games we have had at FMS. It went right down to the last question as they edged out 2nd place by a score of 5779 to 5566 to earn SOAR slips and this shout out on social media. #GoFalcons

Today was the first day of the prosecution and defense teams building their cases for the "Tell Tale Heart" Mock Trial in Ms. Ruffertshofer's 8th Grade ELA classes. We look forward to see who builds the strongest argument moving ahead! #GoFalcons

We have more winners from our 7th Hour FMS Team Sports Class with Ms. Mehnert. This group won our first Soccer Championship this past week. Love seeing the friendly competition in our classes! #GoFalcons

Today is National IT Professionals Day and we have the best team around at FCSD. Thanks to this group that keeps us online and connected. Our district would look very different without their support! #GoFalcons #ITProDay

We are going to have to up our game a little bit at FMS because this group solved today's 9 brain teasers puzzles in record time to earn SOAR slips and this shout out on social media. Hope they are ready for a challenge next week!!! #GoFalcons

Two new initiatives in our FMS Leadership Classes are the addition of a school store and school newspaper. Congrats to the students who have taken positions in these new endeavors! #GoFalcons

FMS was able to welcome students who are new to Freeland this year at a luncheon on Friday. Thank you to Mr. Fattal and our Student Leadership crew for hosting this event. The students enjoyed pizza and visited with us so that we could get to know them. #GoFalcons
