Principal's Corner

ksener.jpgDear Students & Parents,

I can't believe how fast 1st quarter ended. I remember the orientation day we had on August as yesterday. 2nd quarter will start on Tuesday, October 14. Students will get their second connection class of this school year. Each student will be given a new schedule on Tuesday morning so that they know where to go for connection. I wish all of our students a wonderful 2nd quarter at FSA.

I would like to remind everyone about 2nd early release day which will be on Wednesday, October 15, 2008. Dismissal for bus riders will be at 12:46 and for car riders at 12:50.
