Fiske Families,

The ELA MCAS are over and we are all so proud of the grade 3-5 students for doing their best work on these assessments. Before we all go on vacation, there will be a lot happening at Fiske next week.

Microscope, Microscopy

This Saturday, April 9th the first Fiske Science Fair will be held from 3:30-5:00 p.m. in the Fiske gym. To date there are approximately 70 Fiske-tastic scientists participating in the fair. It should be an amazing afternoon of fun with science. Thank you to our Co-chairs: Anshul Chadda, Hilary Madge, and Manisha Varma for creating this exciting opportunity for Fiske students.

Stage, Theater, Show

On Wednesday, April 13th at 6:00 p.m. the talent of our fourth and fifth graders will be on display at the Fiske Talent Show! This should be a wonderful evening of music, dance, and drama for the entire family to enjoy. A huge thank you to Alyssa Holtzman, Lisa Rodger, and Lizzy Floyd for working to make this night of talent a success for our children.
