Great teachers make us feel seen and empowered as learners. As we celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week, we will share videos and messages that touch on the impact educators have in our lives all week long. Let’s celebrate teachers, FMS!


Students enjoy a long weekend today, it's a Teachers Professional Work Day!


During the FMS school year, our school kitchen personnel prepare three thousand breakfasts and seven thousand lunches every day (more than 2 million meals in one year). That’s why they are School Lunch Heroes on #SchoolLunchHeroDay! #SLHD23, which takes place on Friday, May 5, 2023, marks the 11th anniversary of the observance all about recognizing the hard work school nutrition professionals do and the way it benefits children’s education and growth. Thanks, School Lunch Heroes for ALL you do, we salute you!
