Unfortunately, we were unable to have Grandparent's Day and Family Engagement Reading Night. Many kids were waiting to shop at the book fair at these events. Therefore, the book fair will be open today from 12 to 2 for anyone wanting to still shop. Come to the office front door and the book fair is located in the art room. The book fair will not be here next week. Thank you and have a great day.
Due to flooding and still rising high water, Fort Frye Local Schools will be closed today, Friday, April 4. This is a remote learning day for all students.
Therefore, Grandparents Day has been canceled due to the flooding waters.

Just a reminder that tomorrow is a One Hour Early Dismissal (3:00).
We have two schools that do not dismiss until 4 p..m. and many students in extracurriculars after school, we will be dismissing one hour early this Friday, March 7, so that our fans can safely travel to support our Lady Cadets in the Final Four. We will play Rootstown at 7 p.m. at Claymont High School. Go Cadets!
Here are some of the students completing the recess challenge (limbo) from yesterday.
