January 2025

 

Welcome back! I hope everyone had a great winter break. It was nice to see everyone back on campus today.

 

Our Winter Concert was amazing again this year. It is always exciting and fun to see the kids dressed up and performing for their families. They did a great job!

 

Thank you for participating in the canned food drive for the Fortuna Volunteer Fire Department. We collected a total of 1,210 food items. I am proud of our bumblebees!

 

On January 14th, we will be halfway through the school year. We will celebrate with a Crazy Hair Day. Wear your craziest hair design and join the fun.

 

Our next School Site Council meeting will be on January 14th at 2:30 in the Ambrosini conference room. You are invited to join us.

 

There will be no school on Monday, January 20th. This is in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. School will resume on Tuesday, January 21st at 8:00 am.

 

We will practice our procedures for school lockdowns on January 21st. If your children mention a lockdown that day, it is a practice drill.

 

What does your child want to be when they grow up? We will have a career dress-up day on January 24th. I look forward to seeing all the great ideas.

 

The Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) could use your help. Please plan to attend their next meeting on Tuesday, January 28th at 6:30 in the FMS cafeteria. They will start planning the carnival soon. This is the PTO's main fundraiser, and it takes many people to make it successful.

 

The 100th day of school is January 29th. Besides all the classroom activities focusing on the number 100, we will have a school-wide pajama day.

 

Looking ahead, our Breakfast with Buddies will be held on February 14th from 7:15 am to 8:00 am. Registration forms will be sent home during the last week of January.

 

Happy January,

Angela Schuetzle, Principal
