Happy New Year!
Here we go! Time to Fire UP! I love this time of year, and I hope you do to. We’re getting ready for another fantastic school year at FHMS. The teachers begin their official work week next week (August 3-7), and students begin Aug. 10. Our office is open 8-3 for any new registrations, questions, or anything else we can help with.
Here is a summary of important dates and events:
July 24: Mr. Brennan and Mrs. Gomez’s summer vacation ends. Mrs. Gomez cries.
July 27: Office re-opens, 8-3.
July 30: New teachers report for training.
July 31: Student schedules will be mailed.
August 3-7: Teachers report for training and preparation.
August 7, 1-3 PM: FHMS Meet Your Teacher. This is an open-door event for all students and parents. Please feel free to roam the halls, say “Hi” to your teachers and office staff, pay fees, load lunch accounts, etc. A number of FHMS supporters and partners will be available in the lobby. School supply lists are posted on the district web site: www.fhusd.org.
August 10: First day of school! We will be on our early release schedule, 7:45-11:45. NO LUNCH IS SERVED.
August 20: School picture day.
I am really excited for the start of the school year! We have had some work done over the summer to make FHMS an even better place to learn: seven new SmartBoards were installed; the school is being painted this week, the whole school has been cleaned and shined up, and a few landscaping projects are still underway.
I look forward to a great school year with students, teachers, and parents. Please call, email, or visit my blog any time I can help!
Mr. B
