Staff and students have done an excellent job following safety protocols put into place to keep our schools and communities safe from the Coronavirus. The FEF was happy to play a small role in the effort to minimize the risk of Covid exposure by purchasing foam tiles and plastic totes for our younger students. To alleviate possible exposure from sharing classroom supplies in our kindergarten classrooms, individual totes were purchased to help keep student books, school supplies and personal items organized. “The tubs have been a life saver”, states Ms. Lockhart, Beach kindergarten teacher. “We store lots of things we may need so that we limit touching of materials. We have everything we need without leaving our seats!”
Colorful foam squares were also purchased to help K-2 students socially distance from each other both in the classroom and while learning outside. Teacher Julie Anderson states, “Beach kindergarten classes have been using our mats to take mask breaks outside. We also use them during our Brain Break time to look at books, color in coloring books, and rest. They also come in handy as we take turns washing our hands. The class does stretches as they wait for their turn to wash their hands.” Shettler kindergarten teacher, Jenna Teays states, "I love these foam mats because they help provide a boundary of space for students while trying to social distance." "Our class has enjoyed using our mats to spread out and learn outside so that we can enjoy the fresh air," states Ms. Gustin, second grade teacher at Beach Elementary. Based on their comments, her students agree:
"I like them because whenever we sit down on them we don't get dirty." ~ Monroe
"They're so squishy and soft and not hard as a rock!" ~ Olivia
"They're so soft!" ~ Lauren
"I like them because the grass won't poke you when you sit on them." ~ Emma
"When you sit on them, you don't get dirty." ~ Cooper

When asked for donations/support our community steps up to the plate often to help our students and schools. Many are local, family owned businesses and have a vital role in our neighborhoods and community. It's now our turn to reciprocate their generosity.
Support from the businesses and organizations have impacted many programs at FCS including K-12 music and STEM. Additional curriculum materials were funded through teacher mini grants, and scholarships for seniors were awarded. Our students have benefited greatly because of their generosity. It's now our time to answer their call for help. As our economy begins to reopen, let's show our appreciation by patronizing the many businesses who have helped us this past year.
