February Falcons of the Month

Today our students started taking their state assessments, M-STEP. They are working hard to "Finish Strong" - giving extra effort to make it through to the end, which is our Capturing Kids' Heart theme for the month of April. We made sure here at school we provided the best testing environment for them and reminded them how much we believe in them. Each student received a Perseverance Bracelet and a Stick With It Note, with positive affirmation sticker. Thank you to families for making sure your student had a good night sleep and thank you to those who have donated healthy snacks to classrooms. We appreciate you all!

Here is the Fancher Flyer for 4.16.24. https://www.smore.com/n/9spe3 See more information inside for Teacher/Staff Appreciation Week donations, M-STEP Testing, important calendar dates, GRASP forms due April 26th, Falcons of the Month and more.

Thanks to our a few of our Assistant Principals for helping Mrs. Rinke celebrate of Falcons of the Month for March. They called down students to the office over the PA system today. A group of students have used dojo points to purchase Assistant Principal from the Fancher School Store!
