Fiske Families,

We had a soggy walk to school day on Wednesday where over 100 Fiske Falcons participated.  Thank you to all the parents and guardians for encouraging your child/children to participate.

On Wednesday, the Fiske Falcons gathered in the gymnasium for our monthly assembly. This month, we focused on the power of our words. We discussed how the words we choose take only seconds to say but can have a lasting impact on those who hear them. At the end of the assembly, our students agreed that they want to be known as people who use their words to lift others up rather than hurt feelings. We encourage you to continue this important conversation at home.
