Honoring Our Veterans 🇺🇸
Our school and community proudly came together to recognize and honor all the very brave who have served — and those who continue to serve our great country. We were especially honored to welcome Commander Doerr from the American Legion, whose presence reminded us of the courage, sacrifice, and dedication that define our nation’s heroes. On this Veterans Day, we express our deepest gratitude to all veterans for their service, their strength, and their unwavering commitment to protecting the freedoms we hold dear. Thank you for your sacrifice and your example of true patriotism.
Be sure to take a minute to recognize these heroic individuals outside the main office the next time you’re at FES!

🐾 Terriers Show Up! At FES, we know that showing up matters — every day counts when it comes to learning, growing, and connecting as a community! We’re so proud of our Terriers who showed up strong for the 1st Marking Period — proving that attendance is the first step toward success! The PTO Positive Treasure Box received a workout this week :) #alwaysaterrier

We hope everyone had a fun and safe Halloween! FES would like to take a moment to express our gratitude to the incredible individuals who helped make our school’s Halloween celebrations so special.
A huge thank you to Miss Hurley for organizing a fantastic middle school dance, Mrs. Ippolito and the school choir for their wonderful musical performance, and Officer Coletta and the local police department for stopping by to join in the fun!
We’d also like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Eric Fiorito from The ArtYard for their generous donation to an FES community member.
Most importantly, thank you to all of our students, staff, and families for coming together to celebrate! Your participation and spirit truly made the day magical. #alwaysaterrier
