FFMS Families, I was not expecting a day off school today! Since we did not send chromebooks home, students will extra days to complete their remote work for today. Next week we will be state testing for ELA. We have worked hard to create the best enviornment possible for student testers this year. 6th grade will be testing in small groups all week. 7th grade will be testing Tuesday and Wednesday morning. 8th grade is running an AM and a PM testing schedule because they have an extremely large class. An email was sent to 8th grade families with testing groups. 8th grade students testing in the AM can leave at 11am. 8th grade students testing in the PM need to report to school by 12pm. Please make sure all students get a good nights rest before testing days! Enjoy your long weekend and Go Cadets! https://5il.co/3cmkm

8th grade families, The final DC payment is due this Friday, April 4th. We will have a mandatory DC parent meeting on Tuesday, April 8th at 6pm in the high school auditorium. Next week begins state testing. Because our 8th grade is an extremely large class, we are going to test in 2 different sessions (AM and PM). This will allow us to test in small groups. 8th grade will be ELA testing Tuesday, April 8th and Wednesday, April 9th. If your child is testing in the AM, they need to report to school at regular time on the 8th and 9th and can leave at 11 am. If your child is testing in the PM on Tuesday, April 8th and Wednesday April 9th, they do not need to report to school until 12:00pm and will stay until the end of the school day. Groups will be shared with students and are posted in 8th grade classrooms. They will also be emailed to you so you know when your child is testing. These hours will be coded at "School Related" and not counted against your child's attendance. We are trying to create the best testing enviornment for our kids. I understand that many parents work and can not pick up or drop off your child in the middle of the day. We will have a space for 8th graders who are not testing and can't secure a ride to or from school Sorry for the inconveniece and thank you for helping us create the best testing enviornment for our students!
